Tuition Assistance Program (TAP)
Guidelines
1. TAP funds are awarded to students/families who demonstate financial
need and who are committed to the mission of Hanalani Schools.
2. To ensure an objective assessment process, Hanalani Schools partners
with School and Student Services (SSS). Families submit their information
directly to SSS.
3. Financial need is determined by a family's annual income and/or family
hardship, i.e., job loss, major illness, etc.
www.hanalani.org
www.hanalani.org4. Parents' contributions: Hanalani Schools believes that both parents must be
responsible for a child's education; therefore, a family's need is determined
by the income statements of both parents, including tax documents.
5. If step-parents are involved, the SSS & the TAP Committee consider all
partners' assets and liabilities in determining the level of family need. Non-
custodial parents must also submit a TAP application or a third-party verifica-
tion letter.
6. If multiple children attend tuition-charging schools or colleges, families are
expected to apply for tuition assistance at all schools.
7. Temporary unemployment: Families must provide periodic updates regard-
ing new employment and/or demonstrate continued job search.
8. Families must apply for TAP annually.
9. Parents of TAP recipients must complete four hours of service to Hanalani 5
Schools per quarter for each child receiving TAP. High school students in
Grades 9‒12 who are receiving TAP may be the ones to fulfill the service
hours.
10. TAP funds are first awarded to students who are currently enrolled and then
awarded to new families.
11. To allow Hanalani Schools to assist as many families as possible, families
accepting scholarships from other sources may not receive TAP awards.
12. Hanalani Schools expects a family to make the necessary adjustments to
their choices of expenditures and not rely solely on Hanalani to supplement
tuition.
13. The priority deadline for TAP is January 31, 2021. Families applying for
admission to Hanalani Schools after the deadline may apply for TAP. TAP
awards following the deadline are on a funds-available basis.
14. Families receiving TAP awards are not eligible for any additional tuition
discounts.
15. Child(ren) must be accepted for admission to Hanalani Schools in order for a
TAP application to be reviewed.

recommendations to the school regarding award amounts. Upon receiving
the family profiles and recommendations, the TAP Committee reviews all
family information, the PFS, and any statement of extenuating circumstances.
The Committee awards TAP funds according to the TAP guidelines and funds
available. The TAP Committee informs families of TAP decisions beginning mid-
April.
