Take Your First Step Toward Becoming a Bishop Hurricane

Our admissions department seeks bright students of good character, who are eager to immerse themselves in all aspects of high school life. We are welcoming of all faiths.

How to Apply

Four Steps to Bishop

Step 1

Apply Online

Complete the online application through FACTS/RenWeb. The application fee for new students is $100.

Step 2

Placement Test

The High School Placement Test (HSPT) is given to eighth graders seeking entrance. The Admissions Review Board makes decisions, places applicants, and determines scholarship awards based on the results.

Step 3

Shadow Day

Spend a day as a Bishop student — paired with a Student Ambassador, attending classes, with a complimentary lunch in our dining hall.

Step 4

Decision

Rolling admissions follow the first-consideration round each fall. Questions? Email admissions@bmchs.com.

Tuition & Affordability

Tuition for 2026-2027 is $16,250 — one rate for all students, including all technology and laptop fees (1:1 Chromebook program). Florida scholarships (FES-EO, FTC, FES-UA) through Step Up For Students, the CSTAG diocesan grant, the BMCHS Catholic Credit, and school scholarships can substantially reduce the family investment.
