Tuition Assistance Process
The Admissions process and the Tuition Assistance process are completely independent of one another. Admittance to OBA is determined without regard to a family’s application for Tuition Assistance. The Tuition Assistance Committee only reviews financial aid requests after a decision has been made to admit the student to the school.
Families may apply for tuition assistance through the OBA tuition assistance fund and through the Oklahoma Scholarship Fund. Families who apply to both funds may receive assistance from one or both funds as determined by the committee.
- Applications are filled out digitally online. A link to FACTS Services is available at the bottom of the oklahomabible.com website. A link to Oklahoma Scholarship Fund is also available on the school website or at osfkids.org.
- A payment to the application review agency is due with each FACTS application.
- Only one application to each agency per family is necessary. Each listed family member who is a student at OBA will be qualified under the single family application.
- An application must be completed annually using the current year’s income and family size criteria.
- Application deadlines may be put in place by the school to allow necessary time to process information. The current deadline for current students is May 1, including both application and additional required documents.
