About Regis

Regis High School is a Catholic, Jesuit college-preparatory school for 537 young men in grades 9–12 in New York City, and the only Jesuit, full-scholarship high school in the country. Founded in 1914 through the generosity of an anonymous woman and her family, Regis offers a tuition-free Jesuit education: every student attends on a full merit scholarship, made possible by the philanthropy of alumni, parents and friends.
