Tuition & Aid
Rhodora J. Donahue Academy of Ave Maria Tuition and Fees 2009-2010
Rhodora J. Donahue Academy of Ave Maria has set its tuition to reflect the projected actual cost of education for each student. Financial aid is available for those families who cannot afford the full cost of instruction. Finacial aid is awarded on the basis of actual need, not simply on number of children attending. We anticipate that many families, especially those with multiple children, will require some form of financial assistance. We encourage all families interested in the school to register and go through the financial aid process for possible access to tuition awards and scholarships.
K-12 Tuiton for 2009-2010 is $6,700 per child
