FACTS Applications

The FACTS online application for STO opened on January 1st, with the deadline

being May 5, 2025. The application has been simplified! Parents must upload their 2024 federal tax return and other required schedules or tax documentation. These can be uploaded at any time during the application process so please get your application started as soon as possible. STO awards will be applied to tuition before ESA which could leave more ESA dollars in your students ESA/Odyssey account to use for future tuition. 



Families who applied last year will receive an email that the 25-26 applications are open. If families applied through FACTS last year, they should use the same username and password.
