How do I apply for a FIAT scholarship?
Applying for a FIAT scholarship is a simple process. There is a required financial aid application, which will need to be completed at TADS.com and can be accessed on fiatcatholicschool.com. On the homepage you will find a Blessing our Future button. Click on the button and it will take you to TADS.
You will have the option of being considered for a scholarship through Blessing Our Future or Bishop Flores Scholars. Should you wish to be considered for both scholarships, you can use just one application and select both campaigns on the TADS website. Our applications are being processed through TADS, a third party company that specializes in financial aid and scholarship assistance.
