New as of 10/18/2011: New TADS Financial Need Assessments Program
We are pleased to announce that TADS has been selected by the Archdiocese of San Francisco to conduct financial need assessments for 2012- 2013 on behalf of families attending Mission Dolores Academy. The online application process is completely confidential, and highly efficient. To qualify for tuition assistance from the Archdiocese, you must live within the boundaries of the Archdiocese, which includes San Francisco, San Mateo and Marin County. Applications must be submitted by April 15, 2012. The $27.00 processing fee is made payable to TADS. Failure to pay the processing fee may delay the evaluation. We recommend completing the Financial Aid Worksheet prior to beginning the online application. Families currently receiving PSAS Tuition Assistance need to re-apply each year to be considered.
