The Bishop's Scholarship Fund application process officially opened on Friday, February 1. All families that currently receive tuition assistance from Foundations in Education through the Bishop's Scholarship Fund should have received an email directly from FACTS to remind you to start the application process for 2019-20.
The link below provides further information about the tuition assistance process.
Last year the BSF awarded over $190,000 in tuition assistance to Assumption families. I encourage all families to apply through FACTS, even if you think you will not qualify for assistance.
No financial assistance of any kind can be awarded without a completed Grant and Aid Application!
The process is simple.
- You must login to the FACTS website and complete the Grant and Aid Application.
- Complete the online application.
- Upload your 2018 tax information.
- Submit the application and documents and pay the $30 fee directly to FACTS.
The deadline is March 15, 2019
The deadline for new families, enrolling for 2019-20 is April 15, 2019.
We will offer several Financial Aid Nights in the coming months to assist you in completing the process. Dates will be confirmed soon. Please feel free to contact the main office with any questions. We are here to help!
