FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment Service has been selected by St. Martin Academy to conduct fair and confidential financial need assessments for families that may need assistance paying tuition.
To access the FACTS online application, click HERE. If you have questions during the application process, you may reach FACTS at 866-441-4637, Monday through Thursday, 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM and Friday 7:00AM to 5:00PM Central Time. FACTS staff are also available through live chat on the website. If you already have an account with FACTS for tuition, you can use your existing log-in to access the Grant & Aid application.
Tuition assistance is available on the basis of demonstrated need. If you believe that your resources are not sufficient to meet the total costs of a St. Martin of Tours Academy education, you are encouraged to apply.
FACTS provides a framework through which a household need can be measured fairly and equitably. Recommendations from FACTS are used by the St. Martin of Tours Academy finance committee in accordance with its policies to determine the award amount. Final awards notices will be mailed in April by the committee.
Applications for tuition assistance need to be completed online. There is a $35 processing fee.
Applications are processed according to need from January 22, 2022, to March 31, 2022.
In any given year, individual family tuition aid grants are dependent on the number of families applying for assistance and the tuition assistance funds available.
Eligibility for aid is determined by FACTS in conjunction with the St. Martin of Tours Academy Finance Committee, based on the completion of required documentation.
St. Martin Preschool families entering kindergarten may apply for aid.
Families are eligible for aid and may re-apply for financial assistance for up to four years if current with tuition/Extended Care payments and service hour requirements.
