The Test for Admission to Catholic High Schools is accepting applicants now. Parents are urged to look at this information site (link here) and read each of the links in the left-hand column. You may have to print out some of the forms and directions. The list of schools is posted sideways on the PDF, so printing those pages would help you to read the information. It would appear that the thirteen Catholic high schools of The Bronx offer 2,415 places for incoming freshmen.

Please also note the dates of the Open House visitations and the Information Fairs.
---
The cost of the test is $63.

You will also find an abundance of information in the 2016 Catholic High School Guide linked HERE.

For students and parents intent on Catholic high school admission, the important point is to GET MOVING, as instructed above.

The following note is of less importance. Because of my interest in Catholic education in the metropolitan area, I list the number of seats available to freshmen in twelve counties:
The Bronx leads with 2,415 openings.
Queens, with 2,160 openings.
Manhattan, with 1.314 openings.
Staten Island, with 1,375.
Brooklyn, with 1,300 openings.
Westchester, with 1,179 openings.
Dutchess, with 190 openings.
Orange, with 110 openings.
Rockland, with 110 openings,
Ulster, with 60 openings.
Putnam and Sullivan, with no Catholic high schools.
