Aquinas Catholic Schools firmly believes that every family should have the freedom to choose the most suitable educational setting for their children and through our scholarship programs, we strive to make private education both accessible and affordable for all. We offer two scholarship applications that may be advantageous for your family, and if you have any questions, please allow us to assist you throughout the application process.

FACTS Management
FACTS is an online tuition management program that helps faith-based schools offer the best payment plan solutions. There are different options that allow flexibility in scheduling tuition payments. Aquinas Catholic Schools require FACTS for tuition payments. Here are some FAQs about FACTS.
*Alternative Max Tuition
Multiply your AGI (Adjusted Gross Income) from your last tax return by .07 (7%). That is the maximum tuition you will be expected to pay. Please apply within FACTS for Max Tuition Benefit.
Your family is KEY to the success of Aquinas Catholic Schools.
Please inform Administration if these benefits are not enough for your family. We are here to help.
