Admissions 

Xaverian is a school rooted in the tradition and spiritual beliefs of the Xaverian Brothers.  When you choose to become a part of Xaverian High School, you join a rich tradition of men who actively live the Xaverian Brothers' values of humility, trust, zeal, compassion, and simplicity.  After leaving our home at  7100 Shore Road , Xaverian men have gone on to serve as CEOs of some of the largest corporations in the world, gifted surgeons and doctors, professional athletes, accomplished actors, and members of the clergy.  Now it’s your turn to decide if you have what it takes to be a Clipper, and become a part of the rich tradition that is Xaverian High School.

Prospective students are required to sit for the TACHS exam and place Xaverian High School as one of their three choices.  Students who are seeking scholarship awards must sit for the scholarship exam.  We encourage all students to attend our open house, sign up to be a “Clipper for a day”, and explore our website.  Please take a moment to review the various aspects of the admissions process, and to see what Xaverian High School is all about.  All this information is available throughout our website, or take a moment to look at the Xaverian Viewbook and its supplement.

This year Xaverian has moved to a student application and teacher recommendation for all applicants.  It is our belief it will allow us to make a more informed decision among the applicant pool.  The Application and Recommendation are Due by December 1,2012.  If you are sitting for the Scholarship Exam then the materials are due by November 14, 2012.

You are preparing to set sail with one of the best high schools in New York.  Please allow us to help you along your journey.  If you have questions, or wish to make an appointment to see the facilities please contact our admissions office.
