Incoming Freshmen Admissions
An Open House
is held on the 3rd Saturday in October. Saint Vincent Ferrer High School
uses the TACHS exam as the major instrument
for determining admission to Ferrer. Any student
interested in applying to Ferrer for the
9th grade class should register to take the TACHS Exam in the
early part of her 8th grade year.
When the girl takes the TACHS Exam, she must list Saint Vincent
Ferrer High School (TACHS code #212) as one of her
choices in order for the scores to be sent to
Ferrer.
Her grade school
will fill out a form for her three TACHS choices. The 6th,
7th, and 8th grade academic record of the
student will be completed by the grade school and sent to the three
schools of choice in December.
Selection for The Ferrer Scholars
Program (the major scholarship of the school) is based on
TACHS scores, grade school academic records and impeccable conduct
report, and listing Saint Vincent Ferrer as first school choice.
Ferrer
contacts the students selected for the scholarship in January.
