Tuition and Tuition Assistance
CONTACT INFORMATION
Marist Catholic High School offers over $1 million in tuition assistance annually. Additionally, the Marist Foundation awards nearly 100 scholarships ranging from $500 to $3,000 every academic year.
The Marist Catholic High School Tuition Assistance application for new and returning students in the 2025-26 academic year will be available on November 1, 2024. We encourage families to apply for tuition assistance as early as possible. The priority deadline to apply and provide all supplemental documents is February 14, 2025. New and/or returning families who do not apply during this window will be considered for funding after applicants who met the deadline.
All applicants will be notified in April with a tuition contract and, if applicable, an award letter that itemizes any tuition assistance, scholarship dollars and/or Commitment to Catholic Education funds offered. The deadline to sign and return the tuition contract, as well as pay the annual registration fee, is April 30, 2025, to reserve a spot. A student’s enrollment at Marist in the 2025-26 academic year is not confirmed until the tuition contract and registration fee are received.
Marist offers tuition assistance to families based on several factors. All applications and financial information provided is evaluated by FACTS Grant & Aid Assessment, a neutral third party, as well as Marist’s tuition assistance committee. There is a $40 non-refundable fee to submit a tuition assistance application, and families must reapply for tuition assistance annually.
Questions regarding the tuition assistance program may be directed to the Admissions Office, or to Sharon Myrand in the Business Office.

Guided by our mission and our commitment to be a welcoming community, Marist Catholic High School strives to offer financially accessible tuition rates to students and families. Although tuition is our largest source of revenue, it does not fully cover the cost of the college preparatory experience Marist offers. We do not receive any financial support from the Archdiocese of Portland, or any local, state, or federal agencies. Generous donations from parents, alumni, and friends of Marist, as well as targeted fundraising efforts by the Advancement Office, provide the remaining support we need to ensure student growth and development at Marist is second to none.
In addition to tuition, students and families should anticipate the following costs:
Tuition for the 2024-25 school year is $14,600.
Students enrolling from a Catholic feeder school recieve a $1,000 discount.
Because we realize funding a Marist education can be challenging, we encourage parents to apply for tuition assistance. Marist works with a third party, FACTS Grand & Aid Assessment, to evaluate family income, family size, monthly expenses, and other financial resources such as retirement balances and other assets. After assessing the application and supporting information you provide, the tuition assistance committee determines if any aid can be offered, and the dollar amount awarded will be deducted from the student’s overall tuition. There is a $40 non-refundable fee to submit a FACTS application and be considered for tuition assistance. Families need to apply for tuition assistance annually.
In addition to tuition, students and families should anticipate the following costs:
- $50 Marist Application Fee – one time. This fee helps to offset the costs in application for admission evaluation and supporting documents.
- $500 Registration Fee – annual. This fee helps fund the iPad program, extracurricular activities, and maintenance of student records.
- $150 Textbook Fee – annual. The school subsidizes the actual cost and orders class textbooks and eBook/etext licensing for each student.
- $65 Yearbook – annual (optional). Yearbooks are available at the beginning of the new school year.
- $105 Advanced Placement (AP) Exams** – per exam. Sophomore through senior year, Marist students have access to AP classes that prepare them for AP exams each spring.
- $40 - $150 Retreats** – depending on year in school and retreat. Retreats help to build community among Marist students, faculty and staff, as well as fulfill our mission to serve students under the doctrine of Christ.
