A new partnership between Cathedral High School and Emmanuel College guarantees admission and merit scholarships for eligible students.
Launched in 2025, the Emmanuel Saints Catholic Connection Guarantee provides a transparent and accessible path for Cathedral students to continue their studies in the heart of Boston.
“Emmanuel is privileged to partner with Cathedral High School to uplift the intellects and hearts of young people, while preparing them to thrive in a fast-changing world,” said Emmanuel College President Beth Ross. “The Saints Catholic Connection Guarantee is emblematic of our shared commitment to Catholic educational values—and brings current and future students within closer reach of the career- and life-shaping power of an Emmanuel education.”
The guarantee is available to students at partner schools who have earned a weighted GPA of 3.5 or higher through their junior year. Candidates must also apply to Emmanuel, and visit campus.
“We are thrilled to see our partnership with Emmanuel continue to grow and evolve,” said Dan Carmody, Cathedral High School President. “Their commitment to continuing educational access for Cathedral scholars through the Saints Catholic Connection Guarantee is reflective of their authentic belief in the potential of our Cathedral scholars and aligns in such meaningful and intentional ways with Cathedral’s mission. Through their foundation of love, care, and academic promise for all students, Emmanuel has become a home to so many of our Cathedral graduates over the years, and it’s with incredible admiration and gratitude that we thank them for making this next phase of our partnership possible.”
“When students and their families come to our campus, they experience our vibrant community in the Heart of Boston and see the benefits of our liberal arts core and focus on experiential learning,” said Ian Sonia, Emmanuel’s Associate Vice President of Undergraduate Enrollment. “The Saints Catholic Connection creates a seamless pathway for students at our partner schools to continue their educational journey at 400 The Fenway.”
