Build the Brotherhood

Goal: $30 million

Throughout our history, Fairfield Prep has been dedicated to ensuring that young men from all socio-economic backgrounds have the opportunity to attend Prep and be formed in our Jesuit, Catholic way of proceeding. Your support will elevate our capacity to forge our community into a cohesive Prep brotherhood, regardless of our families’ financial resources.

Opportunities to Build the Brotherhood

Need-Based Financial Aid

At Fairfield Prep, we want prospective families to feel that a Jesuit, Catholic high school education is not only a valuable investment, but accessible to all. Nearly one in three Prep students receives need-based financial aid, which totaled over $3.6 million in 2023-2024. As needs grow, we must ensure that a lack of family resources never stands between a student and a Prep education.

Magis Merit Scholarships 

Established with the applicant class of 2025, the Magis Scholars program has become an invaluable resource for attracting the absolute best candidates to Fairfield Prep and promoting a culture of excellence on campus. Scholarships range from $2,000 to $5,000 and are renewable over a student’s four years at Prep. Awardees are required to maintain cum laude status as well as an impeccable record of good citizenship and commitment to the school’s mission.

Fairfield Prep Fund

The Fairfield Prep Fund provides vital, flexible resources that enable the school to sustain the hallmarks of a Prep education, including financial aid, a superb faculty, and facilities and programs that allow students to achieve at their highest level. The fund gives our school leadership the immediate agility to meet the emergent needs of our students and families.
