About TADS

Our Story

With over 50 years of experience serving faith-based and independent K-12 schools, a 99-percent customer retention rate, and more than 500,000 documents processed annually, the TADS® Suite delivers best-in-class experiences for schools and the families they serve.

In 1970, “Tuition Aid Data Services” was formed to serve the unique needs of private schools in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. Having managed two million student applications since, today TADS stands as the leading private K-12 admissions, enrollment, financial aid, and tuition management solution. Now part of VenturEd Solutions, TADS continues to enhance how schools attract and retain mission-fit students.
