Regis is an outstanding school in many senses of the word. It is an academically exceptional school, built upon a dedication to social justice. To say that its students are some of the most impressive you will ever meet is no overstatement. Its admissions process was long ahead of its time, its model of free education an extraordinary innovation.
Overall, while other schools might be helped by their pricey tuition models that finance overly expensive sporting facilities for middling teams, Regis's greatest asset is its students.

Excellent school, great experience. Meaningful learning environment and very good teachers and staff.
Loved my time as a student. I am prepared for college because they taught well and gave me all the resources to be accepted to the best colleges.
Academics are rigorous but attending is a great opportunity and the location opens up many other opportunities.
Regis is a great school. Loved it. There are some great teachers, some not so great, but overall highly recommend. Academics are rigorous but manageable. Food is usually good. I learned how to write better in Regis. I was accepted to both Stuyvesant and Regis, and I do not regret my decision going to Regis. I made many great friends throughout the years.
Though make sure you sleep on the weekends or on breaks, especially if you are coming from a place outside of New York City. Even in NYC, you probably won't get much sleep.

Our son graduated class of 2012. We have stayed involved with Regis since 2008.The teachers are dedicated to their students, the standards are high and we are thankful for this. Our son took full advantage of sport and debate. All the young men in his class no matter there economic level to a man was polite displaced good manners and was a man for others. There mantra is to go forward with this gift of education to help your fellow man that life is a journey that education is lifelong and that you have been blessed with this amazing education to use your gifts to help those around you and in doing so helping yourself become the best man you can be
Challenging high school on Manhattans upper east side. Invitation only all scholarship. Rigorous curriculum. Not worth going unless you are willing to put in alot of time and effort.
Unparalleled classical education with extremely dedicated and caring faculty! The curriculum at Regis is both broad and deep and more than prepares you to major in any discipline in any college or university in the country. I majored in Physics in college and graduate school and literally could have gone from Regis directly into my sophomore year in college! Regis is as good academically as any school in the country!
Great teachers who genuinely care about the students they are teaching. The great education provided by the school is well known but most do not realize the sense of community of the school. The school is very well run and provides a diverse and accepting learning environment.
I absolutely loved the teachers, but the administration could lighten up a bit. They are far too overbearing.
Regis has shaped my life forever by helping me make so many wonderful memories. It has amazing teachers and faculty that helped me get through my four years and has made me so much stronger as a student and as a person.
Regis is like nowhere else. Unparalled academics, learning environment, and community. Recently, the administration has been making changes – some for better, some for worse. Besides that, Regis is Regis. If you know it, you just know what I'm talking about.
I have no regrets about attending Regis High School. Like many students, I commute from an hour away and would not give it up for anything.
Regis has become my home over the last four years, but I will admit that the quality of education fluctuates between different subjects, classes, and teachers. Overall, the community is very welcoming and accepting and it is quite easy to make friends no matter how outgoing you are.
Regis was an absolutely excellent educational experience. What made it even better was the diverse spread of clubs, relatively good sports teams, and great opportunities for meeting people.
Regis gave the opportunity of an excellent education to many students who never would have had a similar opportunity.

I have had continued exposure/experience with the Regis community. As an alumnus, I have found myself continually connected, from afar, to the ongoing of this wonderful school for young men. My life was changed but also focused by my four years at Regis (1958-1962). As the son of parents with sixth grade and eighth educations, my exposure to the entire world was primarily given by the educational experiences at Regis. Students need not come from an ‘elite’ atmosphere. In fact, Regis searches for applicants who are in need to grow and develop themselves with the social, fiscal, academic talents that they received from birth.
I commend the Founders and leadership. The vision, execution, and evolution of the model is spot on. Ask any student, parent, faculty, college admissions counselor, and Dean at any University and you will get the real story. It's not perfect but the school has been able to maintain it's high level of academics and keep its goal of providing a full scholarship education for future Catholic leaders, authors, scientists, etc.. The sincere approach to help diversify the classroom has been successful. With education costs going out of control, you would think governments and schools are studying how it's done at Regis.
Get a top notch education without lowering standards or using temp solutions ("shuttling" minorities in or subsidizing over priced tuition with"generous" financial aid packages to fill quotas for chess, academics, sports, and school team competitions). Colleges and employers love Regians!
