Financial Aid

The Saint Francis of Assisi Tuition Assistance Trust was established in 1999 to ensure the ability of Catholic families who might not otherwise send their children to a Catholic school, the opportunity to afford a Catholic education. The creators understood the challenges of financing Catholic schools so they created a lasting endowment that would assist every accredited Catholic school in the Diocese of Tulsa and Eastern Oklahoma by offering need-based tuition assistance for their school families. No family receives full tuition assistance. Every family is expected to pay some portion of tuition. Since 2000, the Trust has awarded over $6 million in financial aid to approximately 7,000 students. Reminders and instructions to apply for funds are distributed to school families annually from each accredited school in the diocese. The annual application deadline is April 15 .  Learn more

 

T he GO Catholic School Tax Credit Scholarship Fund makes a Catholic School education more affordable and accessible for all children. What makes GO such an attractive tool for you is that individuals, married couples and businesses earn a state income tax credit worth up to 75% of the amount contributed through GO !   That tax credit dramatically lowers the net cost of your contribution to Catholic Schools through GO, essentially allowing you to turn some of your state income taxes into a gift of scholarships for our Catholic Schools.

Each student applying to a Catholic school in the Diocese of Tulsa and Eastern Oklahoma that meets the statutory requirements is eligible to apply for a GO scholarship. Every student that applies for financial aid from an eligible Catholic School and submits the required information by the deadlines established by the school will automatically be considered for a GO Scholarship. All students that are eligible to receive GO Scholarships based on verified financial aid application data will be awarded a scholarship. Acceptance into the Catholic school is a prerequisite that must be met before a student will be considered for a GO scholarship. 
 

For over 20 years, the Parish of Christ the King has provided tuition assistance funds for Marquette students in need through the Adopt-a-Student Program (AAS). One hundred percent of all funds raised from this program support Marquette students. This annual appeal relies on the generosity of our parish community and is administered every fall.
