Gonzaga College SJ is a voluntary Catholic boys' secondary school in Ranelagh, Dublin, Ireland.[2] Founded in 1950, Gonzaga College is under the trusteeship of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuit Order), one of five Jesuit secondary schools in Ireland. The curriculum is traditional, with a broad general programme of subjects including Latin and Greek at Junior Cycle and eight subjects being studied in Senior Cycle for the Leaving Certificate.

The school is named after the early Jesuit Saint Aloysius Gonzaga and takes its emblem from the coat of arms of the Gonzaga family. The school has a liberal, intellectual, and Jesuit ethos.[3][4][5]

The annual fee for the 2019–2020 academic year was €6,605.[6]
