An Affordable Education


2026-27 Tuition & Fees

OUR APPROACH
Chesterton Academy of St. Benedict is committed to offering an outstanding high school education at an affordable cost to families.

We keep tuition as low as possible to bring a classical, Catholic education to families regardless of income.

Our goal is to remain affordable, which is why our tuition is far less than what it actually costs to educate each child. It costs Chesterton Academy roughly $24,000 to educate each student. Given that our tuition is $XXXX, this means every student receives an immediate tuition discount of $XXXXX even before any other financial aid.

How are we able to do that? It’s thanks to generous donors, who believe in the mission of the school and want to keep tuition affordable for families. They supply the difference each year.

Scholarships & Financial Aid

Tuition assistance is available to families who apply and qualify for aid. Chesterton Academy utilizes the services of FACTS to help fairly allocate our aid dollars. The student application process must be completed in full before being considered for tuition assistance. In the end, we never want money to be a limiting factor for enrollment.

For the 2025-2026 academic year, 100% of students who applied for financial aid received an award.
