Tuition Assistance & Scholarships

    AOD Tuition Assistance Program

    Through the generosity of donors to the Stewards for Tomorrow Campaign, an endowment fund was created which provides tuition assistance grants to our Catholic families, as well as a limited amount of funds to non-Catholic families. Each year, awards will be made to offset tuition expenses for children of Catholic families who establish need and who both reside within the Archdiocese of Detroit AND whose children attend the traditional kindergarten through 12th grade in Catholic schools located within the boundaries of the Archdiocese of Detroit.

    The link to the FACTS application, the Parent Information Sheet and the Pastor’s Signature form are available below. The Parent Information Document details the process, deadline dates and other essential information. It is important to read this document in its entirety before you apply for tuition assistance. If you have any further questions regarding tuition assistance, please contact your school’s tuition assistance coordinator.
