Tuition & Financial Aid
Making an exceptional Catholic education accessible
At Gibbons, we believe students should experience an exceptional and challenging academic environment that prepares them for a life of faith, service, and leadership.
We understand the financial commitment of a Catholic college preparatory education. That’s why we offer more than $1.7 million in financial assistance qualified families every year.
Gibbons drastically changed the course of my life. The education and leadership training prepared me to attend an Ivy League school. And I’ll never forget the emotion and relief in my dad’s voice when I told him I had received aid to make Gibbons affordable.” Mary '07

If it weren’t for Gibbons and the financial assistance that afforded me the opportunity to attend, I wouldn’t have gone to college. Through its academics and co-curriculars, I was prepared to graduate from college and begin my career as a news editor for a global network.” Diego '15
