For over 30 years, Student Sponsor Partners (SSP) has helped low-income families take advantage of private high school education. SSP students are also partnered with a mentor for the duration of their high school education. Holy Cross is a proud SSP partner school and helps provide students the opportunity to actualize their academic potential. Families can learn more about this program at www.sspnyc.org.

Applications for the Class of 2029 are now available. The deadline to apply is December 31, 2024.

SSP is an external organization; prospective families that have applied for financial aid directly through Holy Cross need to apply separately to SSP.

Families interested in attending Holy Cross for 9th grade may apply for both SSP and financial aid, however, students attending Holy Cross as a member of SSP are not eligible for financial aid or any other awards granted by the school since they are already receiving a significant reduction of tuition.
