Financial Aid
St. Teresa’s Academy offers assistance to students whose families are in need of financial support and every effort is made to award some tuition support to eligible candidates. Each year, STA provides approximately $1.5 million in scholarships, discounts and financial aid to approximately 50% of the student body.
STA works with a third-party organization named FACTS that analyzes applications based on a number of factors (website).
To be eligible for assistance, a family must demonstrate financial need and a student must meet the entrance requirements for St. Teresa’s Academy. Parents of incoming freshmen who wish to be considered for financial aid must complete and submit a financial aid application to FACTS.
Parents of returning students must complete the application and be current on all STA-related financial obligations.
A FACTS application must be submitted every year. Awards are not automatically renewed.
To submit an online application please visit the FACTS website. You may wish to view the online application instructions prior to completing the application. Applications open September 1, 2026, with a priority deadline of December 1, 2026. The application fee is $45. Please contact the Director of Admissions for more information.
To complete the application, families will need to provide:
- 2025 federal tax forms, including all supporting schedules
- Documentation for applicable Social Security Income, welfare, child support, food stamps, workers’ compensation and TANF
- Documents can be uploaded directly to your FACTS account in PDF or JPEG format.
- STA School ID: 22182
Important notes:
- If you have one incoming freshman and one older daughter at STA, you may apply early for both daughters.
- If you are divorced or separated, STA requires that both parents complete an application or provide court documentation stating one parent has no financial responsibility and no custodial rights. Otherwise, we cannot consider tuition assistance until both parents’ applications are complete.
