THE ADMISSIONS PROCESS

St. Augustine Prep students defy conventional classifications. They are not simply students, or athletes, or artists - they are young men of multiple interests and talents, young men filled with curiosity and a desire to better themselves and those around them through a top-notch education rooted in the Augustinian values of Truth, Unity and Love.

If you aspire to grow and learn in the company of like-minded young men, St. Augustine Prep is where you should be.
