Information about the Indiana Tax Credit Scholarship Program and its impact on Catholic schools in the archdiocese

The Indiana Tax Credit Scholarship Program began in 2009.
In the 2017-18 school year, 2,222 students received Indiana Tax Credit Scholarships made possible through donations to the Institute for Quality Education; more than 8,000 of our students currently receive a state voucher.
Combined, archdiocesan schools raised $6 million in tax credit scholarships in 2017-18 to help with tuition assistance.
The 68 Catholic schools in the archdiocese educate nearly 24,000 students with more than 2,000 dedicated teachers.
The average tuition is $5,249 at an archdiocesan elementary school.
The average tuition is $11,485 at an archdiocesan high school.
100 percent of the 1,100 center‑city students in our Notre Dame ACE Academies (previously known as Mother Theodore Catholic Academies) are eligible for and rely on financial assistance.
All archdiocesan schools are accredited by AdvancED and the Indiana Department of Education.
