Admissions

Choosing a high school can seem like a complicated and stressful decision. Don't let it be.

John Bapst Memorial High School enrolls just under 500 students, creating a school community that's small enough for everyone to be known, yet large enough for many opportunities to be offered. Our school provides a range of college preparatory programs, seventeen sports that offer significant opportunities to participate at varying levels, and extracurricular opportunities too numerous to mention. It's a great place for high school students who want to explore their varied interests with others who enjoy working hard and having fun.

Here are a couple of important things to know about John Bapst:

Bapst is an independent, college preparatory high school with no religious affiliation.
There is no cost to apply to John Bapst.
The vast majority of those who go through our easy application process are offered acceptance.
Many communities pay all or a portion of a student's tuition to John Bapst.
More than 50% of our students are involved in performance organizations and almost 70% participate on one or more sports team.
The deadline for first consideration is March 3rd, but applications are accepted on a rolling basis.
