The History of Regis

One of sixty-two Jesuit high schools spanning the United States, Regis High School is located in Manhattan. Opened in 1914 through the generosity of Julia Grant and her family, the legacy of this founding family was to provide Catholic education for young men at no cost.

Today, Regis remains the only tuition-free private school in the country and attracts continued support from its alumni and parents. The tuition-free policy ensures a student body of uncommon talent from a wide range of socioeconomic backgrounds.

Our Mission Statement

Regis High School transforms Catholic young men through an academically exceptional Jesuit education in a caring community which inspires leadership, generosity and a lifelong passion for service as Men for Others. Regis is tuition free and merit based, giving special consideration to families in need of financial assistance.

Our Jesuit, Catholic Values

Jesuit education has set a standard of excellence since its origin in the 16th century. St. Ignatius of Loyola preached the power and value of a broadly based liberal arts education. Today, Regis prepares young men to be religious, open to growth, loving, intellectually proficient, and committed to justice. Graduates of Regis High School aspire to find God in all things through professional accomplishment, leadership, and service to others.

REACH Mission

REACH, through a transformative middle school program, empowers high-achieving young men from underserved communities as Catholic leaders committed to faith, scholarship, and service.

A summer and Saturday access program run through Regis High School, REACH serves students whose families demonstrate significant financial need. REACH serves approximately 150 middle school students each year. Over 90% of REACH graduates attend a Jesuit high school with significant scholarship.
