Cathedral Graduates to Get Guaranteed Admission, Scholarships at CSB and SJU

(KNSI) — Cathedral High School graduates will be guaranteed admission to the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University under a new Pathway Partnership announced Monday.

The agreement applies to Cathedral graduates who meet its eligibility and application requirements and have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0.

Eligible graduates are also guaranteed CSB+SJU’s highest Academic Achievement Scholarship, currently valued at $40,000 per year for students entering in Fall 2027. Eligible domestic students will receive a $1,000 annual Central Minnesota Scholarship as well. Both scholarships are renewable for up to four years.

“This partnership speaks to the value of a Cathedral education and what it can make possible for our students,” says David Fremo, president of Catholic Community Schools.

Over the past three years, 26 Cathedral graduates have chosen to continue their education at CSB+SJU. Eight of them have gone on to compete in college athletics.

CSB+SJU Dean of Admissions Erin Pearson says, “We are proud of this partnership and look forward to bringing two strong communities together to create more opportunities, open doors, and help students find their path to success.”
