To apply for financial aid, parents/guardians must submit an online application to the FACTS Grant and Aid Assessment Service. Submit Your Application

For a request for financial aid to be considered, applicants need to fully complete the FACTS financial aid application and provide all the documentation required in the application. Incomplete applications or missing documentation can result in reduced or denied financial aid.

• Students must maintain a GPA of 2.0 at the end of EACH semester; failure to do so will result in loss of aid for the following semester.
• Your family is required to fulfill twenty (20) volunteer hours for the school year awarded. This commitment can be fulfilled by the student and/or parents or guardians.
• Parents and guardians are to sign and return a letter of understanding.
• Financial Aid is not automatically renewed from year to year.  Each family wishing to participate in the program the following school year must re-apply.  Notices for the new school year are posted on the website.
• Failure to apply before the deadline may result in loss of aid for the upcoming year.  All applicants are placed on a waiting list if the application was filed after the deadline; however, there is no guarantee that you will receive aid.
