Dear School Families,
We are pleased to offer an efficient process for parents wishing to apply for financial tuition assistance for the 2022-2023 school year. We have partnered with FACTS Management Company to provide our families a streamlined and customized method to handle financial aid awards. This company serves 9,000 schools, 2 million families throughout the country, including many Catholic dioceses in Texas and in our nation.
With this continued implementation, we ask that all families, wishing to apply for financial tuition assistance for the 2022-2023 school year, complete the required documents provided by FACTS. This process will enable families “most in need” to receive tuition assistance for a Catholic education.
Application for financial tuition assistance can be made online using the FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment Service. The application is user friendly and the average time spent applying is 22 minutes. If you need help with online computer access, please contact school office. There is a $40 application fee which is paid by the applicant. One application covers students in multiple schools.
The application process for Cycle I begins on January 28, 2022. All applications must be submitted to FACTS no later than April 22, 2022, to be eligible for tuition assistance for Cycle I.
Cycle II begins May 2, 2022 and ends June 24, 2022. Applications must be completed and processed by FACTS by June 24, 2022 to be considered for Cycle II.
FACTS’s standing in the Catholic school community is well known. They serve schools and families in more than 160 dioceses. Their commitment to the highest level of privacy and security were foremost in our discovery process. Ease of use and convenience for our families were also important factors in our consideration. While the Grant & Aid program will help us in collecting and analyzing the data, the Diocesan Tuition Assistance Cabinet will make the final decision in awarding aid to our families for “diocesan based awards”. The school will make the final decision in awarding aid to our families for “school based awards.”
Some of the valuable features you will experience include:
- User friendly online application process, easy to navigate, convenient dashboard
- Paper applications will be available upon your request
