De La Salle Collegiate High School is dedicated to the Catholic education of its diverse students, including the poor and disadvantaged. We are a college preparatory school inspired by the spirit and tradition of St. John Baptist de La Salle, where learning takes place in the presence of God. Each student is encouraged to develop his faith, character, intellect, and morality. This mission is embodied in the school’s motto: “Builders of Boys, Makers of Men.”
At De La Salle, education is an investment in your son’s life, an investment that will pay dividends throughout the rest of his life.
We recognize that this is a serious commitment and one that seems out of reach for many families. Fortunately, needs-based tuition assistance is available from De La Salle Collegiate. This assistance is funded directly from the school and its generous supporters. We receive no outside funding from the Archdiocese of Detroit or parishes/institutions. We will allocate the funds based on financial need. All returning students are required to reapply each year to see if they qualify.
Families must apply and be evaluated by a third-party assessment service, FACTS Financial Aid. Considerations include income level, family size, the number of family members attending tuition-based schools, assets, monthly family expenses, and special circumstances. The FACTS application period is open from November 1 to June 30 for the upcoming school year.
Completing the FACTS Financial Aid Application is NOT required for enrollment or freshmen merit-based awards. However, if applying for needs-based scholarships or financial aid, you are required to complete the application. Families must reapply each year to be considered for assistance in subsequent years.

To be considered for needs-based Financial Aid, families must:
- Apply and be accepted to De La Salle Collegiate.
- Complete the FACTS Financial Aid application – the application will require you to attach the following tax documents: Form 1040, W2s, current pay stub. If you have a business/trust reported on Schedule C or E, additional supporting forms will be required. Click here for FACTS Financial Aid Required Documentation.
- Regardless of the marital status of the parents, both the custodial parent and non-custodial parent will have to create their own individual FACTS accounts and complete the application. (Tuition assistance will consider the assets and income of both parents/guardians before making an award and will not be bound by the assertion that one parent has a disclaimed responsibility for educational expenses.)
When the application is considered complete in FACTS ($30 fee to FACTS), the financial aid committee will review and determine the amount of tuition assistance to be awarded to the family for the upcoming school year.
Please reference these helpful guides and videos on how to complete the FACTS Financial Aid application and use IRS integration (optional):

Frequently Asked Questions
What if I am late with my application?
A committee of school administrators is responsible for making award decisions.
I make too much to qualify for tuition assistance, but I still cannot afford the current tuition for my children. What do I do?
We encourage any family concerned about tuition to go through the financial aid process. We remain committed to finding a reasonable solution to tuition. Once again, we strongly urge families to contact the Admissions Office if they are concerned about affordability.
Can my son earn an athletic scholarship?
No. De La Salle does NOT award athletic or talent-based scholarships. To lower tuition costs, parents may apply for need-based tuition assistance, participate in the SCRIP program, earn an academic scholarship based on the High School Placement Test, or receive a sibling discount. No student receives an athletic scholarship.
