Incoming Freshman

All 8th grade graduates, regardless of race, creed, sex, or ethnic origin are eligible for admission to Saint Viator High School. An entrance test is given to prospective students annually on the 2nd Saturday of January. The results of the entrance test are received and grade school teacher recommendations are considered for course placement. An admissions committee reviews the entrance test performance of any student's score which falls in the lowest quartile.  For admission, the admissions committee conducts an interview, considers entrance test results, and weighs previous academic performance and teacher evaluation.  Additional data may be required before admission is granted.  The admissions committee makes the final decision concerning admission.

Waiting List

At times, it is impossible for Saint Viator High School to accept every student who applies because of limitations of space.  First priority is always given to those students who take the entrance test at Saint Viator High School on the assigned date in January.  Priority is also given to students graduating from our normal "feeder" schools.

The following guidelines are established to provide the admissions office with parameters for accepting students to Saint Viator and establishing a waiting list in the event one becomes necessary.

• All guidelines should be consistent with the Mission of Saint Viator High School.

• Every effort should be made to attract and accept students with diverse ethnic, religious, racial and socio-economic backgrounds.

• A balanced student body of females and males is ideal.

• Priority acceptance should be given to children of alumni, siblings of current and former students, and students from our traditional Catholic "feeder" grade schools.

• Every attempt should be made to accept the maximum number of students into our honors and learning disabilities programs.

• Priority should be given to those taking the placement test at Saint Viator.

Students are required to completed 25 hours of Christian Service each school year as part of the graduation requirement. Upon graduation, students will complete 100 total hours. For more information on the Christian Service Experience, click here.
