Tuition Assistance

BISHOP’S SCHOLARSHIP FUND

The mission of the Bishop’s Scholarship Fund is to help families afford a Catholic Education. This past year, the BSF awarded over $2,850,000 in aid to families at the Diocesan elementary schools in Fairfield County.

All families who have a child or children registered, or are new applicants, in a Diocesan-sponsored Catholic elementary school in Fairfield County (Grades K -8) and are in need of tuition assistance are encouraged to apply through FACTS online, www.FACTSmgt.com/aid. 

Applications are evaluated and determinations are made based on program eligibility, financial need, timing of completed application submission, and confirmation of school registration.  

Students awarded financial assistance are notified through FACTS email notifications and scholarships are credited to your tuition account on FACTS once verifications are complete.

Important Dates

2025-2026 applications open February 1.

The deadline for Returning Families to apply is March 15.

The deadline for New Students to apply is April 15. 

Greenwich Catholic School Tuition Assistance

Recognizing the financial commitment families make to send their children to Greenwich Catholic School, the school continues to allocate funds for financial aid every year. The GCS Board dedicates tuition assistance from the operating budget, to ensure GCS is accessible to families.

To be considered for the GCS Tuition Assistance Program, one must apply to the Bishop Scholarship Fund. Greenwich Catholic School uses the same application as the BSF, which can be found on FACTS online, www.FACTSmgt.com/aid. Those families that apply to the Bishop Scholarship Fund will be automatically and subsequently evaluated for the Greenwich Catholic School Tuition Assistance Program.

Like the BSF, Greenwich Catholic School Tuition Assistance Program eligibility is based on financial need, timing of completed application, and enrollment status.

Please note that although every effort is made to award tuition assistance to all those eligible for our program, there is limited funding available each year.
