Admissions

Join the Mount Alvernia Family

We pride ourselves in the holistic approach we use for our admissions decisions. Mount  Alvernia accepts students based on their potential: the potential quality of their character and the potential breadth of their future accomplishments. No one aspect of a student's credentials is more important than another. The application, student essay, parents' expectations, elementary or middle school recommendations, school transcript, entrance examination, and interview are all of major importance in determining a candidate's potential for success at Mount Alvernia High School. This approach yields a student body that not only crosses socioeconomic and demographic lines but also provides a broad range of academic ability and promise.
