Tuition Payment Plans
Tuition for the 2008-2009 year is $11,300. Loyola Academy now offers four payment plans.
Automatic Checking Deduction Plan
Payments will be automatically deducted on the 15th of each month that you have tuition due from your checking account. To enroll in this plan you must return the attached enrollment form and enclose a voided check. [View application form]
Automatic Credit Card Plan
This plan automatically bills your credit card (Visa, MasterCard, Discover or American Express) for tuition charges between the 10th 15th of each month that you have tuition due. [Enroll online] Note: Even if you are currently enrolled in this program, you will still have to complete a new enrollment form for the next school year.
Pay by Mail Plan
This payment plan consists of a tuition statement that is mailed directly to your home. It is your responsibility to mail payments to Loyola Academy on or before the 15th of the month that your payment is due. There is no form to fill out if you opt to receive your bill via the mail and you will be automatically enrolled in this plan if you do not select an automatic payment option.
