Financial Aid

To be eligible for financial aid, a family must demonstrate financial need based on the FACTS Grant & Aid financial need assessment. Generally speaking, historically financial aid assessments have not shown financial need for families with an adjusted gross income (AGI) of $100K or greater. All of our families pay something to attend JPII – financial aid can cover a portion of the tuition and fees for families who qualify, but not all of it.

Families can begin an application for financial aid through the FACTS  Grant & Aid Assessment at any time; however, the financial aid committee does not review applications for financial aid until a student has gone through the admissions process and received a letter of acceptance. The review of financial aid applications by the committee does not include information that would reveal the identity of the applicant.

Required Supporting Documentation

The following documentation that applies to you will be required to be uploaded as a JPG or PDF once your application is submitted. Applications submitted without documentation will not be processed.

• IRS Federal Income Tax Return, including all supporting schedules (the year of the tax return depends on the tax requirements of your school). If applicant and co-applicant file separately, we require both tax returns for the same tax year.
• Copies of all the current year W-2 Wage and Tax Statements for both the applicant and co-applicant.
  NOTE: If you are applying before you have received all the current year W-2 Wage and Tax Statements, please submit them as soon as they become available.
• Copies of all supporting tax documents if you have business income/loss from any of the following:
  Business – send Schedule C or C-EZ and Form 4562 Depreciation and Amortization
  Farm – send Schedule F and Form 4562 Depreciation and Amortization
  Rental Property – send Schedule E (page 1)

• Copies of all supporting documentation for household non-taxable income such as Social Security income, welfare, child support, food stamps, workers’ compensation, and Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF). If you do not file a tax return, you are required to provide documentation of all income received.

Notification of Financial Aid

You may log in to your FACTS user account to review the status of your application. Please allow 2 weeks for processing time before inquiring further about the receipt and/or status of the uploaded documents. Once your application is processed, a financial aid recommendation will be forwarded to JPII. All final financial aid decisions, including notification of an award amount (if any) will be made by JPII. If you have not received notification regarding financial aid, contact JPII Director of Enrollment Management Doug Smith.
