Tuition & Financial Aid

St. Bernard’s is committed to admitting and enrolling the most qualified students, regardless of their economic circumstances.  Every year St. Bernard’s sets aside a generous sum for financial aid.  Over twenty percent of the student body receives financial aid.  Grants are awarded based on need, with the expectation that boys will make good use of their educational opportunities.  Each request for assistance is given individual consideration by the financial aid committee, based on information provided by parents on their financial assistance application.  Financial aid applications are processed by a third party, Clarity. 

Tuition

Tuition for the 2024-2025 school year is $59,560.  This includes lunch, books, supplies, and other expenses.
