Step 5: Optional Tuition Assistance Assessment

Visitation Academy is happy to provide an estimate of tuition assistance in advance of the application process if you feel your financial situation warrants it. We understand that this may be helpful in making your decision. If you have demonstrated financial need, we encourage Grade 9 applicants to apply online for tuition assistance between October 1 and November 1 and Grades 10-12 applicants to apply online for tuition assistance before December 1. Doing so will allow Visitation Academy to review your tuition assistance application early.

We strive to make the tuition assistance application process comfortable for our families, and please know that your application is confidential. We use School and Student Services (SSS) to process tuition assistance applications and provide preliminary data relative to your family’s financial need. To apply, visit https://sssandtadsfa.my.site.com/familyportal to complete your Parents’ Financial Statement (PFS). Visitation Academy’s school code is 1093. If you do not choose to complete your online application by the deadlines stated above, then you should complete it no later than December 31, 2024. Late applicants will be considered if funds remain and may be placed on a waiting list.

Please upload a copy of your 2023 IRS Form 1040 income tax return (including all related schedules and W-2s) directly to School and Student Services. Similarly, please also upload a copy of your 2024 IRS Form 1040 income tax return and all related schedules when completed. Tuition assistance awards are contingent upon you providing the required tax documents.

*Please note to make sure you are entering information into the 2025-2026 SSS form.
