An Affordable Education

Tuition & Fees

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

  • Tuition for 2025-2026 is $9,500.

    • This includes all tuition, books, and fees 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.

Financial Aid

We realize our tuition, while low, can still be much for families. We have financial aid available!

For the past two years, we were able to meet 100% of asked for financial aid.

Chesterton Academy is committed to fundraising to help bring down the cost of our tuition even further. There is no reason why a student should have to miss out on an amazing education like this! Email fund@akronchesterton.org to learn more about how YOU can apply!
