Parent Checklist

1. REGISTER YOUR FACTS ACCOUNT

All families seeking financial assistance and/or receiving an EdChoice Scholarship are required to submit a FACTS application. Applications need to be updated with 2019 W-2 forms to be considered complete. Please contact the Office of Admissions if you have not received a financial assistance package.

The government has given people extensions till July 15 to file tax returns, but that should have no bearing on uploading completed (un-filed tax returns) forms into FACTS.

IMPORTANT: If a family has a reason for not having their 2019 tax documentation completed, they can email Susan Miles in the Business Office with the details of why they haven't completed their taxes and she will request the Diocese to waive the requirement.

3. COMPLETE THE TUITION INTENT FORM

4. SCHEDULE YOUR REGISTRATION APPOINTMENT

Registration Day is March 6 and March 9, by appointment only. Follow the link in your personal Hoban Admissions Portal to schedule and/or manage your Registration Appointment.
