Dear St. Bernard’s Parents,

We are pleased to announce an improved process for parents wishing to apply for SEEDS financial tuition assistance for the 2017-2018 school year.  We have partnered with FACTS Management Company to provide our families a streamlined and customized method to handle financial aid awards.

Some of the valuable features you’ll experience include:

• User friendly online application process,  easy to navigate, convenient dashboard

• Paper applications will be available upon your request

• Status-bar and online checklist to track your progress

• Highest level of security and confidentiality

• Single username/password for each FACTS family

• Call Center staffed by FACTS representatives, Spanish available

• Web chat to get answers to your questions

• Customized questions specific to our institution

• One Click Spanish translation

• Easy upload of supporting tax documents, mail or fax also available

There is a $30 application fee which is paid by the applicant. One application covers students in multiple schools. Please note: If a family has a high school student and the high school uses FACTS for their tuition assistance allocations, only one application needs to be submitted for the family.

The deadline for SEEDS tuition assistance application is April 30, 2017. Unlike last year, the application must be completed and all documents submitted by the due date.   We strongly suggest families submit applications no later than April 15th to allow time for questions and corrections, if needed.

If you have any questions, please contact FACTS Customer Service.  

Yours in Catholic Education,
