THS has partnered with the Tuition Aid Data Services (TADS) for the current school year. TADS provides a framework through which individual household need can be measured fairly and equitably. Recommendations from TADS are used by THS to determine the amount of the tuition support grant. Final notices of grant amounts will be mailed with each student's enrollment contract.

Determination of tuition support grants will depend on the following:

• Availability of tuition support resources from the school
• Completion of TADS on-line application, available starting on October 1, 2011
• Submission of application and supporting documents to TADS by January 21, 2012 (see below)

Please Note:

• Applicants applying after the deadline will be considered if funds are still available.
• All grants are for one year; grants must be reapplied for each year by all families.
• All submitted documents are confidential.
• Grant notices will be mailed with enrollment contracts on February 15, 2012 for current students and March 1, 2012 for new students.
• If the TADS $34.00 application fee is in any way a hardship for your family, please contact the Director of Admissions, Cristin Talley, to receive a waiver.

How to Apply for Tuition Assistance

Applications for tuition assistance may be completed online starting October 1, 2011 at the link provided below (or go to http://www.mytads.com and select the Financial Aid Assessment option). The processing fee is $34.00.

In preparation for the on-line application, it is recommended that families download the TADS Financial Aid Worksheet prior to completing their financial aid application. This worksheet will provide families with an outline of the information requested on the application and will assist with data entry. A link to the TADS Financial Aid Worksheet is provided below.

The following supporting documentation must be submitted to TADS by January 21, 2012.

In the case of a divorce or separation, both parents are required to submit the following documents to TADS:

• Household members' most recently completed federal tax forms (personal and businesses owned)
• W-2's from each job held by household members
• Most recent pay stub from each job held by household members
• Documents that establish the amount of miscellaneous monthly or yearly income you currently receive (i.e. welfare, food stamps, unemployment, workers’ compensation, etc.)
