Marian High School | Tuition Assistance

Grants and Student Work Program

MARIAN LEADERSHIP GRANT

The cost of private Catholic education is such that the tuition and fees charged do not cover the total cost of educating each student. Marian’s Advancement efforts, including the Marian Fund, Spring Raffle, and parent club fundraisers, are designed to make up the difference between the actual cost of educating each student (approximately $18,625 for 2023-2024) and the tuition charged ($15,825). Therefore, in accordance with Marian’s mission to serve as many families as possible, a Marian Leadership Grant of $2,800 is made available to each student.

MARIAN HIGH SCHOOL TUITION ASSISTANCE GRANTS

Fundamental to our mission is our desire to make a Marian education available to as many students as possible and to assist families who find themselves facing economic uncertainty. All families in need of tuition assistance are encouraged to apply. Beginning with the 2020-21 school year, Marian’s Board of Directors made a commitment to dramatically increase the amount of tuition assistance available to Marian families. Tuition assistance awards range from $500 to $11,000.
