FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment for Organizations
Scholarship granting organizations like yours can empower students and families to pursue private education. But deciding which families need financial aid most (and how much that aid should be) can be a difficult job to do without bias. We can help.
With FACTS Grant & Aid, we’ll create a custom formula to assess which families need financial aid the most. You can consider factors like family income, enrollment verification, and goals/rules set by your organization to get an objective recommendation – and the final call is always up to you.
Throughout the process, we’ll notify applicants on their grant award status and give you reporting metrics for your boards and donors. Plus, you’ll gain the support of a team experienced in scholarships, grants, savings accounts, and other forms of financial support.
No-Hassle Information Collection and Verification
- Families upload tax and W-2 records, and FACTS verifies their information.
- Our income-based analysis includes a customizable formula that accounts for expenses, assets, state tax credit qualifications, and more.
- You can customize application questions to gather any information you need.
- Request custom, non-income related information from families to give more context around their eligibility.
- Families receive communication on their status – so if they’re missing a form, they’ll know as soon as possible. Plus, our friendly customer care center is available via phone or chat if they need help.
- Our specialized team for organizations not only helps schools and families – they can also be hired to manage processes and lighten the load for your team.
Advanced Features to Meet Your Needs
