Financial Aid

Upon acceptance and enrollment at Bayshore Christian School (or re-enrollment for current families), families with students in grades Kindergarten-12 may apply for financial aid. Not sure if you qualify? We encourage you to apply. The Financial Aid Team considers many factors when determining an award. Funding is limited, and offered on a need-based, first-come, first-served basis. Families must re-apply every year. Here are the steps for your financial aid application:
 
Step 1: APPLY to BCS or complete your child's RE-ENROLLMENT for the upcoming school year. 
 
Step 2: Complete the financial aid application.
Your financial aid application will request financial documents such as W-2s and tax preparation documents from the previous calendar year. Additionally, you will upload a Family Letter which will be reviewed by the Financial Aid Team. Please use this template when writing your family letter. You will upload it as a PDF during the application process. 
 
Step 3: FACTS Grant & Aid will review your application and provide their report.
The report will be reviewed by the Financial Aid Team at Bayshore Christian School, which may grant financial aid for a greater/lesser or exact amount as recommended by FACTS and determined by the school administration. You can review our Financial Aid Policies for additional information.
