Tuition & Financial Aid
Payment plans are available.
The actual cost to educate each CRCP student is $16,000.00. Donations to CRCP by generous benefactors help bridge the gap.
Cardinal Ritter has two rates of tuition. The Catholic rate is applied to those students who are baptized Catholic or who have attended a Catholic elementary school and have completed the eighth grade from a Catholic school. All other students pay the non-Catholic rate. Tuition payments begin in July and end in May.
