Other Financial Aid/Scholarship Options
Action for Children
-
The Action for Children (AFC) program is primarily intended for paying childcare expenses. This program is not intended for private school tuition & fee cost. Individuals under this program assume all balances not paid by Action for Children. Upon receiving payment, the school immediately applies the amount to any childcare balances. If a family is no longer enrolled at Queen of the Universe School, any payment received by the school is directly returned to Action for Children.
