Financial Assistance

We are passionate about Catholic education and committed to help families in need of tuition assistance. Please let us know if we can be helpful in these processes. There are five primary sources of Financial Assistance for families:

• Parish Assistance
• Diocesan Assistance
• Angel Scholarship Fund (new)
• EdChoice for qualifying income or school districts
• Scholarships, both diocesan and parish based
• Jon Peterson for children with special needs

Parish Assistance Directions:

Parish Assistance is available to families who are active parishioners of St. Gabriel,  who first complete the FACTS application form (see below), and demonstrate a need for assistance. Junior Kindergarten students are not eligible for assistance. A critical consideration in the process of seeking tuition assistance is the involvement of the family in the Catholic Community of St. Gabriel. Only St. Gabriel registered and active parishioners will be considered for aid provided by the parish. 

NEW Angel Scholarship Fund
​St. Gabriel is very excited about this new opportunity for families. The application process is the same as above (FACTS application) plus this Angel Scholarship application.  This process is due by April 24, 2023.

Diocesan Assistance Directions:

Diocesan  Assistance is available to families,  who first complete the FACTS application form (see below), and demonstrate a need for assistance.  To qualify for Diocesan Aid, all FACTS applications must be submitted by March 15 (Round One) or by June 1 (Round Two).
