Financial assistance for education is crucial for many families, and Kamehameha Schools understands this need by offering a waiver for the application fee associated with their financial aid and scholarship services. To apply for a waiver, using the Application Fee Waiver Request Form, families whose household income falls at or below specified levels can have the $20.00 cost for the online or paper application covered. The form requires applicants to submit their 2009 Federal Income Tax return as proof of income and to meet predetermined household size and income thresholds, which are clearly outlined to ensure transparency. With deadlines set for submissions, it's crucial for applicants to send their requests on time, accompanied by complete documentation, to avoid any delays in processing. Additionally, the form allows for communication preferences regarding how applicants will receive their waiver notice, emphasizing customer convenience and satisfaction. This approach by Kamehameha Schools underscores their commitment to making education accessible by simplifying financial barriers for applicants, indicative of their broader support for community education. Through their detailed guidelines and structured process, encapsulated within Form 161Ab, Kamehameha Schools assists families in navigating the application fee waiver process with ease and efficiency.
