How do I schedule a campus tour or shadowing session?

Thank you to those families that were able to attend our Open House on Saturday, October 15. 

Families that were unable to visit the campus this fall will have the opportunity to after admission decisions are released. Tours will resume in the spring.

Myself or a member of my family has limited mobility. Can accommodations be made for campus tours and shadowing sessions?

If you or a member of your party has limited mobility or mobility issues, please contact a member of our Admissions team so that proper accommodations may be made in advance. Office of Admissions (954) 491-2900 ext. 108 or visit www.cghsfl.org/admissions

Does Cardinal Gibbons offer an Open House?

Yes, Cardinal Gibbons hosts one Open House each year. During Open House, prospective students and parents are invited to meet our faculty, staff and current CGHS students and explore our extensive academic and athletic facilities. Date for 2023 Open House will be published soon!

Is financial assistance available?

Families are encouraged to apply first for need-based financial aid through the following State-Sponsored Programs:
Step-Up for Students (SUFS) www.stepupforstudents.org
Florida Private School Scholarship (AAA) www.aaascholarships.org
Additional financial assistance sponsored by Cardinal Gibbons is need-based and awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis through Cardinal Gibbons Tuition Assistance Program, FACTS Grant and Aid (FACTS). More information can be found here. 

Are there standardized tests required for applicants?

All applicants to Cardinal Gibbons must take the Admissions Entrance Exam (HSPT), to provide  additional academic information in regards to their application. The HSPT is offered at Cardinal Gibbons once per year. The exam date for the 2023-2024 school year is Saturday, December 3, 2022. Registration is automatically completed with the submission of the application. 

How important are standardized test scores during the admissions process?

Standardized test scores, including HSPT scores, are only a portion of the materials considered when deciding on the admission status of an applicant. Teacher and Principal recommendations and report cards are also a part of the admissions application to paint a full picture of our prospective students and assess if Cardinal Gibbons is the right fit.

How can I submit report cards, transcripts and test scores?

All report cards, transcripts and test scores will be submitted directly from the student’s previous school using the Release of Records form to Release form

My child attends a non-traditional school or is homeschooled. Who should write their letters of recommendation?

If an applicant has attended a non-traditional school or was homeschooled, we still require them to submit two (2) letters of recommendation to complete the application process. However, since these students may not have formal teachers, we request that both letters of recommendation be written by a recommender other than the applicant’s parents or family members. Acceptable recommenders include, but are not limited to, tutors, youth group leaders or academic counselors.

When will I receive an admissions decision?

Grade 9: Admissions decisions will be sent via email on Friday, January 20, 2023 after 3:30pm. 
Grades 10, 11, 12: Admissions decisions will be sent via email on Friday, January 27, 2023 after 3:30pm. 

What application should I fill out?

Please select the correct application that corresponds to the applicant’s current school.

  • 9th Grade - Public or Private School Application: Students currently enrolled in a Broward County Public School, Magnet school or Non-Archdiocesan Middle school.
