Tuition Assistance

Tuition Assistance

St. Louise Parish School is dedicated to making a Catholic education affordable and accessible for all families through a range of tuition assistance programs.

Commitment to Affordability

We strive to ensure that financial constraints do not prevent families from choosing St. Louise School. Each year, we award approximately $200,000 in tuition assistance, reflecting our commitment to serving families from diverse financial backgrounds.

Our financial aid programs are designed to support families who value Catholic education and actively contribute to our school and parish community. We continually explore new ways to expand resources so that every child who seeks a St. Louise education can access it.

Eligibility and Confidentiality

All families demonstrating financial need are encouraged to apply. The review process is confidential and managed through the FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment to ensure an equitable and private evaluation for every applicant.

Will I Qualify for Aid?

Many families wonder whether they will qualify for tuition assistance, and the short answer is: it depends on each family’s unique financial situation.

Tuition assistance at St. Louise Parish School is awarded based on demonstrated financial need, which is evaluated through the confidential FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment. This process considers a variety of factors, including but not limited to:

• Household income
• Number of dependents
• Cost of living and family expenses
• Financial obligations such as childcare, medical costs, or educational expenses
• Special circumstances that may impact a family’s financial picture

Because each family’s situation is different, there is no single income threshold that automatically qualifies or disqualifies a family from receiving aid.

We encourage any family who feels tuition may present a financial challenge to apply. Tuition assistance is designed to help bridge the gap between what a family can reasonably contribute and the full cost of education.

If you are unsure whether applying makes sense for your family, we encourage you to reach out to our Business Office. We are happy to answer questions and help guide you through the process.
