Description Of Non Cash AssistanceOur philosophy of cost-based tuition and need-based tuition assistance seeks to balance sound stewardship with compassionate support to families that need help to attend Veritas. Resources are provided to families with a proven need for assistance based on an evaluation by Family Financial Needs Assessment (FFNA), an independent organization that provides a third-party, objective and completely confidential financial needs assessment. All families who apply for tuition assistance are notified of appeal procedures if there are extenuating circumstances that are not taken into account by the FFNA evaluation. The Tuition Assistance Committee will require any appealing families to provide additional documentation supporting the request and will objectively review the appeal to determine if additional financial assistance will be granted.DescriptionOfNonCashAssistance
