The Diocese of Tulsa and Eastern Oklahoma offers three different formal opportunties for eligible families to receive tuitition assistance. The deadline to apply for any tuition assistance fund is April 15.
The Saint Francis of Assisi Tuition Assistance Trust has been distributing funds since the year 2000 to eligible Catholic families in the Diocese who might not normally be able to afford a Catholic school education. To be eligible for these trust funds, the student(s) must be a practicing Catholic, and at least one parent/guardian applicant must be a practicing Catholic registered in a parish within the Diocese. An annual fundraiser is held on or around the Feast of Saint Francis in October each year to help grow the corpus of the trust. Learn more about the trust here and how you can donate to help our students:
GO for Catholic Schools is a tax credit scholarship program. The GO fund is populated by donations for which our donors may earn a state income tax credit worth up to 75% of the amount contributed to the fund. Donors also earn a tax deduction for charitable contributions when itemizing deductions. To be eligible for these scholarship funds, families simply apply and maintain enrollment. Distributions are solely based on income as listed on the financial aid application. Learn more about GO here:
Friends of Catholic Education is a tuition assistance trust commited to ensuring that Catholic education is available to all children, regardless of race, religion, or affluence. The fine parish schools of St. Catherine, Sts. Peter and Paul, Holy Family Cathedral School, and Instituto Bilingue Guadalupano at St. Francis Xavier are the institutions assisted by this trust. When choosing the recipients, each school’s pastor and principal consider the level of need for each individual family. Donations are matched dollar for dollar. Learn more about the FOCE here:
When applying for financial aid through the specific school portal, you only need to fill out one application for any of these funds.
