SNG will notify students by email of their admissions decision, as well as academic scholarship awards. Students who have submitted a completed FACTS Financial Aid Application will also be notified of their eligibility for tuition assistance. Financial need does not impact admissions decisions.
In order to register for the upcoming school year, accepted students must complete the Enrollment Form in the Applicant Portal checklist, and submit a $200 registration fee.
SNG will have one early admission deadline for the Class of 2029. Applicants must have completed the application form, and have all required documents sent by their school by Friday, October 25th to be considered for early admission.

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.

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