Admission

Enrollment Information

Our Mother of Sorrows and Saint Ignatius of Loyola schools are open to children of all backgrounds in grades pre-k through eight. Most families enroll in the spring, however, if space is available, students may enroll at any time. Families considering enrolling a child are encouraged to visit the school, attend an open house, or have their child ‘shadow’ a student at either school. New families should bring a completed new student registration form to either school. To find out more, please e-mail oms.si@skdp.org or call Our Mother of Sorrows at (215) 473-5828 or Saint Ignatius of Loyola at (215) 222-3626.

Financial Aid

No family pays the full amount of their child’s education as tuition is at least $775 less than the cost of education. In addition, the schools are able to distribute scholarships from their endowments based on a combination of need, family involvement, and student effort. We also offer support to families who apply for scholarships from organizations including The McGinnis Scholarship Fund, Children’s Scholarship Fund, Business Leaders Organized for Catholic Schools, and the Kremer Foundation. In 2009-2010 98% of students received scholarships. It is our goal that financial limitations will never prevent a child from reaching his or her God-given potential.

             continues to make in order

for me to have a quality

             education by attending Catholic school.”
