For over 114 years, Cathedral Prep has proudly educated bright, driven young men from all walks of life, transforming potential into excellence. We welcome students from across New York City and its suburbs into a community that fosters growth and success!

If you’re considering joining our legacy of excellence, we invite current eighth-grade students to start the application process by taking the TACHS Exam in November and selecting Cathedral Prep (TACHS number 013) as a choice. Following the exam, our admissions team will send a Principal’s Report to your school for recommendations and invite you for an interview in early January. Bring your completed Application Form to this interview.

Our Administration reviews grades, teacher recommendations, and test scores to determine the best fit for each applicant. Decision letters, including information on scholarships and any required summer programs, are sent out in mid-January. Accepted students will receive details for Registration Night after responses are collected.
