Tuition, Fees and Tuition Assistance
Good Counsel seeks to provide a quality college preparatory education at the most affordable rate possible, with tuition fees set annually by the Good Counsel Board of Directors in January. Tuition rates include daily lunch for students. Tuition does not cover the cost of uniforms, extracurricular activities fees, or the registration fee for new students. Families may be asked to purchase some books as required for certain courses, but the state of Maryland provides five books at no charge to every student.
2025-2026 Domestic Tuition:
$32,650
Additional Fees
- Application Fees: $70
- Registration Fee: $1,000 (includes iPad Educational Program fee)
Tuition Assistance
Good Counsel offers tuition assistance to qualified families to help reduce the total cost of tuition. We encourage all students, both new and returning, to complete the online FACTS application each year. These forms take approximately 30 minutes to complete.
Good Counsel uses FACTS (Nelnet tuition services) for the collection and initial evaluation of financial data. FACTS does not decide whether tuition assistance will be given or how much to give. FACTS provides a need-based financial analysis service.
Good Counsel does not participate in BOOST.
