Tuition Assistance

Good Shepherd Catholic School is committed to assisting parents
​in meeting their financial responsibility for tuition. 

2023-2024 Financial Aid Information

​FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment continues to conduct the financial need analysis for
the Archdiocese of Philadelphia/BLOCS (Business Leaders Organized for Catholic Schools)
​and Good Shepherd Catholic School.


Applications for the 2023-24 school year are now open.
Applications for the current school closed on September 30, 2022.

​We strongly encourage ALL families to apply! 
You will need to submit documents related to you most recent year’s tax return.

For instructions on how to complete the application, please watch this brief video.
FACTS Management makes quality education affordable for families by assisting schools in awarding financial aid. FACTS works with schools to create a custom application and to collect financial data so schools can make accurate award decisions based on financial need.

You may qualify for tuition assistance if your household income (guidelines for EITC/OSTC programs) is no greater than $105,183 plus $18,514 for each dependent member of the household:
  • Household income: $105,183
  • With one dependent: $123,697
  • With two dependents: $142,211
  • With three dependents: $160,725
  • Add $18,514 for each additional dependent

To apply for financial aid, visit online.factsmgt.com/aid. There is a $30 nonrefundable fee to submit your application. After completing the online application, you will need to upload or fax all required supporting documentation. All need-based awards will be contingent upon reception of the most recent tax return.

IMPORTANT: If you file a tax return but do not have W-2 wages because you are self-employed, you will be required to submit a copy of your current year Federal Form 1040 Tax Return.

If you do not file a tax return, you are required to provide documentation of all income received.


You may login to your FACTS user account to review the status of your application. Please allow two weeks' processing time from the date you provide the supporting documents before inquiring further about receipt and/or status of the uploaded or faxed documents. 

NOTE: Award decisions (amounts) are made by Good Shepherd Catholic School, not FACTS.

​Business Leaders Organized for Catholic Schools is committed to giving children a high-quality, values-based, affordable education in Philadelphia-area Catholic schools. For information about a BLOCS scholarship, go here: BLOCS Scholarship FAQs​.

CSFP grants need-based, partial scholarships through a random lottery. CSFP currently serves more than 5,000 children enrolled at over 160 private and parochial schools, including Good Shepherd Catholic.
