5% Award Increase for Returning Elementary Scholarship Recipients

Did you know that 1300 returning elementary scholarship recipients have already been assigned their 5% award increase in FACTS?
Reminder: Returning elementary General, Retention, Recruitment, NOVA and HRI scholarship recipients with verified or DNF applications in FACTS by June 30 qualify for a 5% award increase.
Make sure you communicate this with your families! You can send your families this letter or use it as a template to create your own.
CSF will assign awards in FACTS every Wednesday until June 30 for FY21 General and returning HRI scholarships recipients with verified or DNF applications. The amount will include the 5% increase.

Summer Verification Form

There will be NO summer verification form this summer.
CSF has adjusted its deadline for all new and returning scholarship recipients’ (those not assigned by June 30) awards to be assigned in FACTS by September 30, 2020. The verification process will then take place after this deadline.
During the verification process, schools may be asked to provide an explanation of students’ financial need if their income is higher than average, their application is not verified, or there is no calculated need. Please see all grant criteria here.
