FACTS Financial Assistance

We would once again like to remind our families of the importance of completing your family's FACTS Financial Assistance application as soon as possible for the 2024-25 school year. The FACTS Financial Assistance portal is ready for you! To access the FACTS Tuition Assistance for Bishop Grimes, click here. 

The submission of the FACTS application is critical for our school. On average, it takes just about $12,146 per pupil to educate a student at Bishop Grimes. For most families, this would present a very real and understandable hardship if this were the actual cost charged for our tuition. Fortunately, for most, this is not the tuition amount that families have to pay per student. Consequently, we rely on the generosity of benefactors, Bishop Grimes alumni, and the financial assistance that we receive through the Catholic Schools Office, which we refer to as TAP A money. This money is funded in large part by the annual Hope Appeal. In order to receive Tap A monies, which is awarded through the Catholic Schools Office, families seeking financial assistance must submit their FACTS applications on time by February 1, 2024. This ultimately helps our families who are awarded TAP A money as well as the school as it is money that we as a school do not have to fund. 

Please remember that if your family will be seeking any level of financial assistance, you must fill out and submit a FACTS application. Financial assistance is a separate application process that must be completed annually apart from the actual re-application. In order to be eligible for any form of financial aid from the Diocese of Syracuse and/or Bishop Grimes Jr./Sr. High School, parents/guardians must complete the online FACTS application. Please note that you are able to use your 2022 or 2023 tax return to submit the application. Click here to be brought to the Bishop Grimes online FACTS application page. Bishop Grimes Jr./Sr. High School's FACTS Institution ID# is 7845, which you will need to complete your FACTS application.

Once again, to be very clear, your family will not receive any form of Financial assistance for the 2024-25 school year unless a FACTS application has been submitted.

2 (a). FACTS FINANCIAL AID Account. All families that completed their financial aid application for the 2024-25 school year will use the SAME login/account information to sign in to their FACTS Tuition Plan Account. If you did NOT apply for financial aid, you will need to create an account through FACTS Tuition Plan. 

YEAZEL CATHOLIC EDUCATION ENDOWMENT FUND

The Yeazel Catholic Education Endowment Fund was created at the Central New York Community Foundation as a vehicle to honor Monsignor Yeazel and support his commitment to Catholic education. An annual disbursement from this perpetual endowment will be used to support Catholic education in the high schools and elementary schools in the Western Region of the Syracuse Diocese.

The application portal for the 24/25 Yeazel Catholic Education Fund is now open. Families must first file a financial aid application via FACTS Management at https://online.factsmgt.com. Applications are accepted between January 1 and February 15 each year. The completed application with FACTS must be received by 2/01/2024.
