ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

  • Complete only one PSAS application for your family, including all students in the family (elementary and high school) on the same form. PSAS will send a need evaluation to all funding sources for which each family could qualify as well as the high schools you have listed on the form.
  • Given the volume of applications, we encourage you to mail your form early to ensure timely completion of the review process. Completed applications received by March 16, 2015, will participate in the initial grant awards. A limited amount of tuition assistance may be available for forms submitted after that date.
  • Other forms of assistance may be available. Check with your school/parish for additional information.
