The Mike Shanks Scholars Program was established by the Davidson family in honor of Mike Shanks, a 1958 Gonzaga Prep alumnus. A lifelong teacher and passionate supporter of the school, Mike believed in the power of education to transform lives. The purpose of the Mike Shanks scholarship is to provide the financial support that makes it possible for a deserving young person to attend Gonzaga Preparatory School. The scholarship, up to $13,500 annually, is awarded to students who demonstrate the values Mike considered essential for success: a commitment to hard work, integrity, and service to others.

The Mike Shanks Scholarship will be awarded to a total of two incoming freshman students annually based on the following criteria:
• Financial need
• Motivation to succeed academically at high school and in college
• Commitment to serving others and being a person of integrity
• Desire to be an engaged member of the Gonzaga Prep community

The Schmidt Family Scholarship was established by Joe `82 and Cindy Schmidt to make it possible for deserving students to attend Gonzaga Preparatory School. Joe Schmidt credits his success in life and career to the educational opportunity that he received at Gonzaga Prep, made possible by his parent's strong commitment to Catholic education. While in high school, Joe worked at a local grocery store in order to help to pay the cost of tuition. Today, Joe and Cindy are the principal owners of a business that supplies packaging materials to grocery stores around the country. The Schmidt Family Scholarship, up to $13,500 annually, is awarded to students who demonstrate the values that Joe and Cindy consider to be essential for success: a commitment to hard work, integrity, and service to others.

The Schmidt Family Scholarship will be awarded annually. Students will be selected based on the following criteria:

• Financial need
• Motivation to succeed academically at high school and in college
• Commitment to hard work, as demonstrated by work experience outside of school
• Desire to be an engaged member of the Gonzaga Prep community

 Incoming freshmen eligible for the Fr. Arrupe Scholarship will be invited to apply by the Admissions and Academic Offices. To be considered, students must complete the Scholarship Application on their Application Checklist. Ten scholarships of $1,000 will be awarded and may be renewed annually.  View the current list of scholars.

If your family needs additional financial assistance beyond the Fair Share Tuition guidelines, you may request a review of your Fair Share award.  Our Review Committee will evaluate all requests and consider such factors as number of students in Catholic grade schools, college tuition, medical expenses, recent changes in employment or other situations. Additional financial assistance which may be awarded include tuition assistance grants from the Nazareth Guild, scholarships from the Gonzaga Prep Foundation or additional Fair Share support.

To be considered for additional financial assistance, all families must first apply for Fair Share Tuition assistance through FACTS Grant & Aid and then meet with a Fair Share facilitator after receiving their award notification.
