APPLICATION FOR THE 2027–2028 SCHOOL YEAR
Your journey to becoming a Cristo Rey Lion starts here! 

We are excited to welcome the next generation of Lions to Cristo Rey New York High School, and this year, families have more flexibility in how they apply.

CRNY is now TACHS Optional!
Students may apply to Cristo Rey New York with or without taking the TACHS exam. Students who choose to take the TACHS can list CRNY as one of their three high school choices to be considered as a TACHS applicant.

If You Have the Courage, We Want to Meet You.

We’re looking for students who are ready to work hard, step outside their comfort zones, and make the most of every opportunity. At CRNY you’ll be challenged in the classroom, supported by a community that believes in you, and empowered to build your future through our one-of-a-kind Corporate Work Study Program.

Priority Application Deadline: December 10, 2026
Priority Decisions Released: January 20, 2027

Every student who enrolls at CRNY benefits from the Corporate Work Study Program, which helps make a CRNY education affordable while giving students the opportunity to gain real-world experience in professional workplaces across New York City.

If you have the courage to challenge yourself, grow, and dream bigger—we want you to become our next Lion.
