Tuition & Financial Aid

The Value of a CM Education

Catholic Memorial’s academic and extracurricular programs are designed to provide boys with a rigorous education, inspirational mentorship, and a robust after-school offering that builds character and leadership skills.

2026-27 Tuition

Tuition for the 2026-27 academic year is $31,185.

The difference between the actual cost of a CM education and the tuition is subsidized by the generosity of donations to the Annual Fund. At CM, we understand parents' commitment and sacrifice in educating their sons in a Catholic tradition. CM is committed to making our education affordable for our families.

Questions & Answers

Our optional Financial Aid program is designed to make a Catholic Memorial education possible for all families based on demonstrated financial need and the availability of funds. Catholic Memorial is proud to use the Clarity Application to determine a family’s level of financial need based on the information that families share in the application which includes assets, income, expenses, and debts.

To get started, please go to the Clarity Application and create an account. The application typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete. The Clarity Application is also mobile-friendly so you can complete it from anywhere. You are also able to save your progress and return at any time. At the end of the application, there is a $60 fee to submit, and you can share your application with additional schools that accept the Clarity Application for no additional charge. Simply use the dropdown menu in the application to select those schools.

The deadline for completing the financial aid application including relevant supplemental documents is January 15, 2027.

If you need support during the process of completing your application, there is in-app support available through the “Help” button in the bottom left of the screen, as well as email and phone support at support@clarityapp.com or 206-210-3752, in both English and Spanish. The application itself is also fully translated into Spanish.
