Merit Scholarship Opportunities

Generous donors have contributed to a scholarship fund to make a
Nativity education accessible to families in the Bay Area. We have two scholarship opportunities, in addition to financial aid, for incoming students in 2025.

Magi Award: $10,000

Eight incoming students will receive a Magi Award of $10,000. The Magi Award recognizes students for making a positive impact in their school or community through living their faith. The scholarship is awarded over four years.

Nativity Award: Full Tuition

Two incoming students will receive the Nativity Award, which is a four-year, full-tuition scholarship. The Nativity Award is in recognition of excellence in academics, commitment to faith, and a score in the top quintile on the HSPT.
