PARENT INFORMATION REGARDING TUITION ASSISTANCE
2023-2024 DIOCESAN TUITION ASSISTANCE PROCESS OPENED ON 2/1/2023
For the 32nd consecutive year, the Diocesan Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) is striving to keep Catholic school education affordable for Catholic families who desire it for their children but who may need some financial assistance to make that dream a reality. Thanks to the ongoing and genuine commitment of The Most Reverend Mark Brennan to the Catholic schools in our Diocese, funds have, once again, been allocated for distribution to Catholic families in need of financial assistance.
Applying for TAP through FACTS is easy and affordable. You are encouraged to apply if your child is already enrolled or has been accepted by one of the Catholic schools in the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston for the 2023-2024 school year.
Note 1: No assistance will be available from the Diocese or from any school unless:
- An application is completed in full (ALL questions answered) and submitted.
- All required documentation is provided.
- The family portion ($17.50) of the application fee is paid by the deadline.
Note 2: ONLY ONE APPLICATION PER FAMILY should be submitted per school year. If you made an error or had a life event change, please do NOT submit a second application. Contact your principal and your application can be updated by FACTS.
Phase I Deadline
In order to receive notification in late May, applications (including all required documentation and payment of the fee) are to be received by FACTS by April 30, 2023.
Phase I is intended for families with children currently enrolled or already accepted for the 2023-2024 school year in any Catholic school in the Diocese of Wheeling-Charleston.
Phase II Deadline
In order to receive notification in early September, all applications for 2023-2024 (including all required documentation and payment of the fee) MUST be RECEIVED by FACTS no later than July 31, 2023.
