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. 

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.

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

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.
