Santa Clara University

Established by the Conference of Academic Vice Presidents of the Association of Jesuit Colleges and Universities (AJCU) in 1971, FACHEX is an acronym for Faculty and Staff Children Exchange. It is an undergraduate tuition remission program for children of full-time faculty and staff to apply the same benefit at participating Jesuit colleges and universities.

If you are a university employee eligible to participate in Santa Clara University's tuition remission program for dependent undergraduates, and your dependent will be applying to another FACHEX participating college, you may request that Santa Clara University send a notice of eligibility to that college. The eligibility notice can be prepared as early as the winter of your dependent's junior year in high school, or, if already attending college, as soon as you know s/he might transfer. Many times, however, a transfer student is not considered for the benefit. The transfer student policy varies by college.

FACHEX Certification of Eligibility form is required if you are planning on utilizing FACHEX benefit. Parents need fill out the form and e-mail it directly to the Santa Clara University Financial Aid Office.

Your eligibility will be certified on the form and it will be forwarded to your selected college(s). Please note that after we certify your eligibility to participate, all further contact concerning FACHEX will be directly between you and your chosen college. Santa Clara University Financial Aid Office has no involvement in the selection process.
