Beyond academic rigor, being a Regian is a commitment and continuous giving of one's time, energies and talents to others. My son is regularly exhausted from the workload, obligations and commute, but he is also highly energized and inspired. The teachers are passionate, but my son learns as much from classmates who are accomplished and driven, yet supportive of each other.
The all-scholarship legacy means true socioeconomic diversity and allows Regis to position itself above the what-can-you-do-for-my-child calculus of expensive private schools.
Regis has an outsized share of boys receiving various national merit awards and placements into the very top universities. But those are never the explicit goals of the school, or the 'returns expectations' of families. They are just the outcome of 4 sincere years of amazing purposeful Regis experience.

The point of Regis is not to get kids into Harvard, Yale or Princeton. The point of Regis is to cultivate Men for Others – to instill in these talented young men a life-long desire to work for the greater good, to fight for social justice and to protect the most vulnerable among us. In today’s “me-society,” we ought to be grateful that a place like Regis still thrives. HYP admissions are mere byproducts of the sublime and complete Regis education.
So, if getting your child into an Ivy is your sole goal, then Regis is not for you — he shouldn’t have applied and if he is still enrolled, he should resign his full scholarship. There are thousands of deserving young men that would love to be in his position. Indeed, I can afford to send my kids to any private school in the City and my child can (and has) test into all specialized public high school. But, I remain, thankful that my child under the tutelage of this wonderful school.

as the parent of 3 children (1 Regis son, 1 Collegiate son and a Brearley daughter) I feel I can be unbiased. First the 8:1 ratio is inaccurate (self reporting???) My son had an average of 24 students in all his classes. And the teachers are paid very poorly. The school took who they wanted, not the most qualified - and I am making no reference to affirmative action; ethnic and socioeconomic diversity was sorely lacking. Regis would accept a minority whose parents were MDs. Regis academics were not comparable to Brearley or Collegiate. Lots of memorization.Harvard Princeton Yale acceptances are way down except for minority Regions
