Tuition Reduction Incentive Program T.R.I.P
What Is T.R.I.P?
T.R.I.P. is a great way to reduce your tuition bill by doing your everyday shopping. T.R.I.P is issued in the form of gift cards that can be used just like cash to purchase everyday essentials like food, clothing or gas. All families are encouraged and welcome to participate in T.R.I.P.
How It Works?
-
Orders may be placed online, sent with your student, or placed in the office. To ensure on time pick up by the following Wednesday (eight days later), orders must be placed by 8:00 a.m. on Tuesday.
​
-
After the order has been placed, please pick it up from the office between 8 am and 3 pm.
​
-
Payment by check or cash must accompany each order. Checks must be made payable to St. Mary for the full cash value of the order.
​
-
Orders must be picked up by an authorized adult; they will not be sent home with a student.
​
-
Participating families receive most of the credit total and a small percent is kept for administrative costs.
​
-
Discount percentages are established by participating merchants and are subject to change at any time. Therefore, orders are subject to the discount percentage in effect at the time the order is placed.

Credits are applied to the tuition agreement in December and June.

Cash refunds are not given for any reason.

In the event that school is cancelled due to weather, orders will be available the next day school is in session.
