The Catholic Education Foundation, the Archdiocese of Louisville, and our funding partners continue to expand tuition assistance opportunities for families who need help covering the cost of a Catholic elementary school education. Catholic schools offer a variety of tuition assistance options to help make Catholic education accessible to more families. Families may qualify for assistance through:
Archdiocese of Louisville
Catholic Education Foundation
Catholic high schools
Local parishes
Last year, Catholic school students received more than $13.5 million in tuition assistance.
Families can apply for tuition assistance through FACTS Management, an independent, third-party service that evaluates a family’s ability to pay tuition at private and parochial schools. Complete one application for all your children, even if they attend different Catholic schools. You can obtain the application through your school or online at www.ceflou.org.
For more information about FACTS Management and the application process, visit the website.
FACTS Management shares its analysis and application information only with the parish, school, or agency that contracts its services. No other parties receive this information.
High schools notify families directly about high school tuition assistance. The Catholic Education Foundation notifies families about elementary school tuition assistance in the spring.
All families with one or more children enrolled in or applying to a Catholic elementary school in the Archdiocese of Louisville may apply for tuition assistance.
Families do not need parish membership to receive assistance from Catholic high schools, the Catholic Education Foundation, or the 200% of poverty discount. However, families must belong to a parish to qualify for the new Archdiocesan Voucher Fund or receive financial assistance directly from a parish.
For more information about FACTS and to access the application, visit the Catholic Education Foundation website.
