Financial Aid

Investing in Your Child's Future

La Salle Prep is the smartest investment you can make in your child’s future. We are committed to providing financial assistance for families who desire a unique Lasallian educational experience. Our extensive financial aid program supports over 50% of students at La Salle.

La Salle uses FACTS Management to help determine a family's financial need. FACTS evaluates a family’s ability to pay tuition based on a variety of factors, including family size, income, assets, net worth, and other pertinent data.

A financial aid award is based on careful evaluation of all of the applicant’s financial information and is awarded as a four-year commitment. Families must re-apply for financial aid each year and can expect a similar award as the previous year as long as their financial circumstances have not significantly changed. New families may also apply for merit scholarships.

How to Apply for Financial Aid

To be considered for financial aid, families must complete the application via the FACTS website. There are no paper applications. Families must re-apply each year by submitting an application and supporting documents directly to FACTS.

Financial aid applications will be available in October 2024 and are due January 10, 2025.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I apply for financial aid?

We encourage all families to apply for financial aid if they anticipate needing help with tuition costs. There is no predetermined level of earnings automatically disqualifying families from receiving tuition assistance.

Applicants with the same income level may have other factors considered, such as the number of students at La Salle, assets owned and other personal circumstances. The determination is made on a case-by-case basis, and the school assists families with need although does not support lifestyle choices that might otherwise be able to be used for tuition.

What are the factors used to determine a family's financial aid award?

Income: Defined as pre-tax earnings from wages, business activity, investments, rental income, etc.
