Tuition & Financial Aid

Chesterton Academy of Akron is committed to offering an outstanding high school education at an affordable cost to families.

Tuition for 2026-2027 is $11,000.

This includes all tuition and books for the upcoming year.

Because tuition does not cover the full cost of an education at Chesterton, families are expected to aid in fundraising efforts throughout the school year.

Chesterton Academy is committed to fundraising to help bring down the cost of our tuition. We believe that financial hardship should never be a barrier for students to receive a Catholic education. Email fund@akronchesterton.org to learn more about how YOU can apply for financial aid!
