Financial Aid Application Process

Any qualified student entering grades K-12 who desires to attend Providence Academy may complete an application, regardless of financial resources. The financial aid application process for Providence Academy is completed through TADS (Tuition Aid Data Services), a third-party organization that collects and audits financial information.

Application forms must be submitted to TADS by February 16 for priority consideration for the following school year. If applicants have parents living in separate households, both legal guardians must apply for financial assistance to qualify. First-round financial aid determinations are typically made in mid-March. All applications for financial assistance submitted after the February 16 priority deadline will be reviewed on a funds-available basis.
