Packet. Portions of tuition still owed because of failure to work the allotted
hours awarded in the Work Grant Program or loss of financial assistance for
other reasons will be charged back to the students tuition account for payment.
C. Refund Policy-Tuition
The tuition deposit is not refundable. If a student withdraws between May 1
and the end of the third week of class, there is no refund of the deposit.
Exceptions will be evaluated only in extenuating circumstances. If a student
withdraws at any time after the first three weeks of class, tuition is charged on
a pro-rata basis, calculated over the 36-week schedule. The tuition charge is
then applied to the amount paid. Repayments of excess amounts paid over
tuition charged will be refunded by check.
D. Financial Aid Policies
SLUH makes every effort to assist students with the financial aspects of their
education. Great emphasis is placed on academic excellence and helping those
who might not otherwise be able to attend SLUH because of financial
limitations.
SLUH offers families, whose son(s) have been admitted to the high school, the
opportunity to apply for financial assistance using a national financial
assessment formula based upon the need demonstrated. All students receiving
aid are expected to participate in the work grant program.
SECTION II-THE GUIDANCE PROGRAM
Counselors:
Mr. Dennis Dougan, Dr. Ken McKenna, Mrs. Mary
Michalski, Mr. Dave Mouldon, Mrs. Nina See
The Guidance Program at St. Louis U. High is an integral part of the school's
total educational program, which supports all levels of the school community.
Counselors can serve as a bridge between all populations within the school.
The program is educational and preventive rather than crisis-oriented in nature
in dealing with all students while recognizing the fact that individuals have
needs that will continue to require special attention. The primary focus of the
counseling program is developmental and reflects a process of self-discovery
and self-awareness as well as growth and development.
The Guidance Program is primarily committed to issues of a process rather
than a product, "how something is done rather than merely what is done."
Self-assessment, reflections, and decision-making are life long skills upon
which an individual should feel confident to rely upon when making decisions
or choosing between alternatives. These skills are based upon an awareness of
values, strengths, and weaknesses both academic and interpersonal.
