Application Process

The St. Augustine Experience

Talk with parents of current and former students (we can put you in touch). Let alumni and current Saintsmen tell of their experiences. Plan a visit to the campus. We have an annual Open House in November, scheduled day visits for 7th and 8th graders in October, and we can arrange other opportunities at your convenience. Please contact Director of Admissions, Mike Haupt at mhaupt@sahs.org with any questions.

St. Augustine High School Transfer Process

If you feel that St. Augustine is the right school for you, it’s time to get underway. Enrollment time is an opportunity for you to set your goals and determine how you can best contribute to and benefit from the “St. Augustine Experience.”

Director of Admissions

To begin, complete the online application for admission. Pre-registration is recommended, but registration will be accepted on the day of the test. The test will be given Saturday, January 20th, 2018 at 8:30 am. Financial aid forms are due by Monday, January 22nd, 2018 and will be available on our website by mid-December.
Saints will request academic records from your elementary school and a recommendation from your principal and teachers.
Evaluation of these records and the results of the Entrance Test will be made by the Saints Admission Team. We will make an appointment for an interview with you at Saints. Non-Catholic school students are encouraged to bring a letter of recommendation from their pastor to the interview.
Formal acceptance of new Saintsmen will be made by the end of March.

Please include recommendations from your principal, teachers and counselor. We will also request an academic record from your current school.
We will arrange for a personal interview.
You will be notified as soon as possible of your acceptance, conditional upon your final semester’s performance at your current school.
Typically transfer applications are reviewed at the end of the school year.
