The Scholarship Application Process
If you desire a quality education in the Catholic tradition for your child or loved one, we invite you to apply for The Good Shepherd Scholarship.
The Good Shepherd Scholarships are based on financial need and family size, which is verified through a third party application. We utilize FACTS Management for scholarship applications which helps us ensure fair and equal treatment, and also helps to keep financial information secure.

- Schools must use FACTS to manage scholarships and the school must participate in the Good Shepherd Scholarship program for students to be eligible.
- The Good Shepherd Scholarship is based on family income and number of family members and awarded to families who are under 225% of the Federal Poverty Level.

- Families must apply in the FACTS Management system and provide standard tax documentation to be considered for scholarships.
