The Catholic Education Foundation, the Archdiocese of Louisville and our funding partners are helping more families than ever who cannot afford the full cost of educating their children in a Catholic elementary school. For the 2020/2021 school year, $6.5 million was awarded to 3,350 students.

WHEN DO I APPLY?

Tuition assistance applications must be submitted between December 15, 2020 – February 28, 2021.

HOW DO I APPLY?

A single form, the FACTS management application, will be used for all forms of Catholic elementary school tuition assistance. The application is available here.
