Financial Aid
Our tuition assistance application is handled through the FACTS system.​
FACTS
All families applying for any financial aid and needs-based scholarships MUST complete an application through FACTS no later than February 28, 2022. FACTS will require families to submit current tax documents in order to determine financial need.
SES Financial Aid
St. Edward Church and School provides limited Financial Aid to qualifying families. To qualify for these funds, families must complete the application for assistance on FACTS. This system determines the amount of need for which each family qualifies.
Subsidy
Participating Catholics are able to attend St. Edward School at a reduced tuition rate. Each parish with SES student members, including St. Edward, will provide a subsidy to St. Edward School.
This subsidy provides additional tuition funding. Each individual parish defines the criteria to qualify as "participating" at their church.
ACE
The Diocesan Advancement for Catholic Education endowment provides additional funding for tuition assistance. Again, these funds are awarded based on financial need, as determined by the FACTS financial aid application.
