The Tuition Gap
Every effort is made to keep Connelly's tuition within a reasonable and feasible range. As a result, the annual tuition is approximately $2,500 less than the actual cost of educating each student. During Connelly's Annual Giving Program, each family is asked to make a tax-deductible contribution of any denomination in order to help offset this "tuition gap," which, in essence, provides each Connelly family with a type of financial aid.
