Tuition Information

In 1955, when the Servants of Mary opened Marian High School, they made the promise that no girl would be turned away for financial reasons. Today, Marian works with each family to review all demonstrated need to ensure that financial hardship does not prevent a girl from attending Marian.

A message from Director of Tuition Assistance, Shari Reynolds

Reaching out for tuition assistance is personal, and we understand the stress families undergo in today’s economic climate. That is why we treat each application with the utmost respect, dignity and confidentiality. We hope to alleviate any  anxiety you might have about the cost of attending Marian by providing a preview as to the assistance you may be eligible to receive.
