Financial aid is annual. Applications are required each year.

• October 1, 2022 — FACTS application site opens
• December 31, 2022 — Financial aid applications due for current and new/applicant families
• June 1, 2023 — Deadline to submit a copy of 2021 and 2022 tax returns, including all schedules, as well as 2022 W-2s

Financial aid applicants who do not adhere to the deadlines will be put on a wait list. Should any funds remain or become available after the first round of decisions are made, students on the waiting list will be notified. Your financial aid award amount will be noted in the contract included in the acceptance letter.

Applicants are to apply online by clicking the FACTS link here. Our school ID number is 14295.

As part of the online application, the following supplemental information is required to be sent to FACTS to complete the process.

• Copies of your 2021 federal tax forms, including all supporting tax schedules. No financial aid will be awarded if the tax return is not submitted to FACTS.
• Copies of supporting documentation for social security income, welfare, child support, food stamps, workers' compensation, and TANF.
• Copies of your 2021 and 2022 W-2s.
• Copies of your 2022 federal tax forms, including all supporting tax schedules.

All supporting documentation must be uploaded online to FACTS as a PDF.

If you have any questions regarding financial aid at the Academy, please contact Chief Financial Officer John Donohoe at 813-839-5371, ext. 231.

1. Financial aid is annual. A family must reapply each year.

2. All parents must provide a copy of their 2021 and 2022 tax returns, including all schedules, as well as 2022 W-2s by June 1, 2023. Families applying for financial aid should file their tax returns timely and avoid extensions.

3. If parents are separated or divorced, all paperwork, including tax documentation, is requested from both parents.

4. If the non-custodial parent refuses to submit the necessary paperwork to the Financial Aid Office, the application for financial aid will not be processed. If the custodial parent has not heard from the non-custodial parent in a period of time, a letter of verification from a disinterested party (minister, attorney, etc.) will be required. A copy of the divorce decree will be required as well.

5. If there are stepparents, the Committee will consider all partners' assets and liabilities as we review the student's financial situation.

6. AHN reserves the right to request additional information or withdraw or reduce the financial aid award from families at any time should additional sources of outside aid be discovered after the aid has been awarded, such as Florida Tax Credit Scholarships.

7. In the interest of equity, if one parent elects to stay at home and not seek employment, FACTS will impute a basic income of $20,000 for the non-working parent. An exception is made if the parent is at home caring for a preschool-age child or an elderly parent.

8. Families must submit all forms including tax returns by June 1, 2023 or the request for financial aid will not be processed.

High school students may apply for the student work-study program. Participants are required to work 100 hours over the course of the school year. Every attempt is made to schedule work around the student's educational and extra-curricular activities. Applications for these programs are available as part of the financial-aid allocation process.
