Here at Sacred Heart Academy, we know that an excellent education is an investment in your daughter's future. Therefore, we are committed to providing tuition assistance to as many families with demonstrated financial need as possible. For the 2023-2024 school year, SHA awarded more than $1.5 million in tuition assistance and scholarships to qualified students. Below you will find information outlining the steps on how to apply for aid.
 

Tuition Assistance

 

Tuition information for the 2024-2025 school year is forthcoming soon.


The Archdiocese of Louisville and Sacred Heart Academy use the FACTS Management Company to manage tuition assistance forms.

  • For your convenience, the FACTS form can be completed online beginning October 15, 2023.
  • Current families seeking tuition assistance must complete the FACTS aid application by November 30, 2023.
  • New or prospective families should complete the FACTS aid application by December 30, 2023.
  • Aid is need-based and is awarded on a first-come, first-served basis. Late applications will only be considered once all on-time applications (completed by November 30, 2023) have received an award and will have limited access to funds. We strongly encourage all those seeking aid to complete the application process by this deadline.  
  • An application is incomplete until both the FACTS application is submitted and all requested documentation is uploaded.


The following information is required when applying for tuition assistance:
1.    Completed application through FACTS Management by November 30, 2023.
2.    All federal forms, including tax reports (2022), all Schedules, including W2’s, and any applicable business returns

 

Please monitor the email address used to complete your application, as FACTS will notify you if any additional information or documentation is needed to complete your application.


If you have questions while completing the FACTS Form call the FACTS Helpline for immediate assistance at 866-441-4637.
