TUITION ASSISTANCE
Bishop Alemany High School offers two applications for tuition assistance for needy and deserving families. Both require that a new application be made each year, even if a student is already receiving assistance. Please visit the Tuition Assistance section at www.alemany.org for details.
Tuition Assistance is available on the basis of demonstrated need. All assistance is provided on an annually renewable basis. Students receiving assistance must maintain a 2.0 GPA and acceptable conduct record. They should also be willing and able to contribute some hours per semester in some form of service to the school.
The Bishop Alemany application period for tuition assistance opens in November.
The admissions process is need-blind, meaning that the committee is not aware of who has applied for tuition assistance when evaluating applicants, so that it cannot affect the outcome of a student’s application.
Catholic Education Foundation Tuition Award
This is a direct grant based on financial need and meeting strict income guidelines. An application must be completed and submitted in January. An award is good for one year only and must be applied for each year.
Bishop Alemany High School Tuition Assistance Award
The school's tuition assistance provides assistance based on family financial need, student scholarship, conduct and leadership. Application is on the Bishop Alemany High School website.
We do adhere to the DOC Archdiocesan guidelines.
Students who receive tuition assistance must maintain a 2.0 GPA and adhere to all Bishop Alemany High School rules and policies. Tuition must remain current in order to qualify for continuing assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions about Tuition
How do I change my banking information?
It is important to note that FACTS Management Company and Bishop Alemany High School never see your bank account nor have any direct access to your account. FACTS complies with State and federal laws to be completely confidential and limited to what has been authorized by the parents to control the automatic payment process. All banking changes should be called directly to FACTS at 1-800-624-7092 or log in to your FACTS agreement
Can I pay my tuition with a Credit card?
FACTS accepts the following credit cards; American Express, Discover and MasterCard. If you choose to pay tuition through your Credit Card you will be charged 2.95% per payment.
When and what time will the funds be withdrawn from my bank account?
While FACTS transacts each payment on the specified date (5th), it is your financial institution that determines the time of day the payment is debited. FACTS recommends checking with your financial institution to determine how far in advance funds should be deposited into your account to ensure the automatic payment clears. If a payment date falls on a weekend or banking holiday, the payment will be transacted the following business day.
How will I be notified of my payment information?
Once your agreement for budgeted tuition payments is posted to the FACTS system you track your account information by logging in to your FACTS agreement.
What happens if FACTS attempts to process my payment and there are not enough funds in my account?
Should an automatic bank payment be returned, a $30.00 FACTS Returned Payment Fee will be automatically assessed to your account. This is in addition to any missed payment fee that the school may assess. You will be notified by FACTS of the returned payment via mail or e-mail. For payment scheduled for the 5th of the month, the reattempt will occur on the 20th.
What about enrollment in the FACTS payment plan in future years?
The FACTS payment plan enables the school to automatically reenroll families in payment plans over successive years, saving time for both the school office and your family. Should your tuition payments be made through FACTS the following year, you would be notified in advance by the school.
Can I pay down on my tuition?
If you would like to make an initial down payment so that your monthly payments will be smaller, please make your down payment check payable to Bishop Alemany High School and bring the down payment to the Tuition Office or log in to your agreement and pay online.
