Financial Aid
Option 1: Short Form
For families seeking financial assistance who may not otherwise qualify for traditional financial aid through the FACTS process. The “short form” option is more streamlined and provides the opportunity for a tuition discount between 10% – 20%. To be eligible for Short Form financial aid: (1) your total annual tuition obligation to CTA (excluding registration fees) and to local Jewish high schools (after any scholarship) must be greater than 10% of your Adjusted Gross Income, and (2) your liquid assets should not exceed $325,000. The aid is based on a calculation therefore there is no option for appeal. Applications must be complete to be considered. Click HERE for the application and documentation requirements.
Option 2: FACTS portal - Financial Aid
This portal must be completed by all financial aid applicants, regardless of whether or not you qualify for EITC or OSTC funding. The deadline for submitting the application is March 1, 2023. Families who apply after the deadline will be subject to availability of funds. We cannot guarantee a scholarship if you apply after this date. To access the FACTS online application, please CLICK HERE. You will need to upload your 2022 W2 or 1099, your 1040 tax form (the 2021 as a placeholder until the 2022 is available), and any other supporting tax schedules.
