Cost to Educate a Student

 

At Mount St. Joseph Academy, investing in our students is central to our mission. Tuition covers only about 35% of the actual cost of educating each student. For the 2026–2027 school year, the true cost of education is $21,000, leaving a $13,500 gap for families paying full tuition. The generosity of Mount St. Joseph donors, along with support from Catholic charitable organizations, helps bridge this gap and ensures tuition remains accessible for all.

 

We are deeply grateful to the alumni, parents, friends, Catholic parishes, and business partners whose generosity sustains our annual fund and scholarship programs. Through these funds approximately $100,000 in need-based financial assistance is provided to students, ensuring an exceptional MSJ education remains accessible to all who seek one. 

 

Financial Aid

 

About $100,000 in financial assistance is awarded to students each year based on need. Find out more about applying for Financial Aid by emailing Enrollment Coordinator Bill Bruso at wbruso@msjvermont.org or calling 802.775.0151, ext. 2013.
