NOTICE regarding students applying from archdiocesE OF MIAMI SCHOOLs
By mutual agreement between Belen Jesuit and the Archdiocese of Miami, the number of students transferring to Belen Jesuit from an Archdiocesan Miami elementary school is limited to two students per fifth grade homeroom. The number of fifth grade homerooms varies from school to school and from year to year. This policy makes admission to Belen Jesuit highly competitive. The Admissions Committee looks at many factors including but not limited to, entrance exam scores, grades, conduct, and a writing sample. In addition, as part of our agreement, no student may transfer from an Archdiocese of Miami school into the seventh or eighth grades.
