Priority Applicant Deadlines & Decision Days:

SNG will have one Priority Applicant Deadline for the Class of 2028. Applicants who have completed ALL required application steps listed in the SNG applicant portal by the Priority Applicant Deadline will be reviewed for Priority Decision. Please note the important dates below: 

• Students who complete all applicant checklist items by Tuesday, October 31, 2023 will receive notice about their application status before the Thanksgiving holiday.

Once our Class of 2028 reaches maximum capacity, we will begin accepting students to a waitlist – so it is to a student’s benefit to apply and register early!

Students interested in transferring to Ss. Neumann Goretti High School

At Ss. John Neumann and Maria Goretti High School (SNG) we welcome students who are interested in joining our school community for the remainder of their high school career. All applicants who wish to transfer to SNG must submit the items below using the SNG Applicant Portal.

SNG has an Admissions Committee that will review and evaluate all applicants.  If you are transferring mid-year please include a copy of your most up to date school records from the school year, with all other required documents. These documents include: Attendance, Discipline, Standardized Test Scores and Individualized Education Plan (if applicable).

A student who is interested in transferring to SNG for the next academic year can submit their required materials at any time during the school year.  However, admission decisions are not made until a copy of the students third quarter transcripts are received by the SNG.

 

Required items for the transfer application 

Students who have attended more than one high school must submit items below from each school the student has attended.

1. Completed application
2. Transcripts from all years of high school
   • Students applying for a mid-year transfer into 9^th grade must also submit their final 8^th grade report card.
3. Attendance records from each high school the student has attended.
4. Discipline Records from each high school the student has attended
5. Recommendation form from a teacher in the current school year (applicants must send a request to their teacher using the request form in their admissions portal.)

 

Following submission of the documents listed above

Once all information is received via the admissions portal, the Admissions Committee will contact your High School Principal for a recommendation. A student will also be contacted by a member of the Admissions Committee to have an in-person interview. The Admissions Committee will review the student’s documents and will base their decision on the “whole” student:  academics, class rank, attendance, discipline, faculty and Principal recommendations. Please note SNG reserves the right to make any admissions decisions to ensure that students entering the SNG community are going to be academically, socially, and spiritually successful. Additionally, all acceptances that are made for entering an upcoming school year are contingent upon the successful completion of your most recent academic year, as demonstrated by acceptable attendance, discipline records, and all academic marks higher than the passing average of an SNG student.

 

Please note the following:

SNG does not accept any student that has repeated Sophomore, Junior, or Senior year.

Any transfer student accepted by SNG during the months of July and later will be required to pay $2000 deposit.

12^th grade admission is only considered with an extreme extenuating circumstance such as a move from a distant state. Financial Aid consideration for any 12^th grade transfer student is prohibited by SNG.  Payment in full is expected by the end of the first quarter grades.

Seventh grade is the perfect time to start the high school admissions process! We encourage current 7th graders to get to know SNG  this year, in preparation for their applications next year. Some opportunities available for 7th graders include our Open House, 7th grade Visitation Day, and Shadow a Saint Days.

We invite future members of the Class of 2028 to spend a day as an SNG Saint at 7th Grade Visitation Day on March 21, 2024!
