Admissions

WELCOME!

Nerinx Hall is much more than a school. Nerinx is an enriching Catholic experience that shapes extraordinary young women. Guided by the Loretto School Values of faith, community, justice, and respect, we welcome individuals that will make a meaningful contribution to the Nerinx Hall community.

Nerinx girls are unique. They are independent thinkers united by strong convictions, and are as enthusiastic about the questions as the answers. In this community of learners, students respect differences of opinion and believe in each person’s potential. Our students are self-assured and work to make the world a better place. They find strength in their faith and in each other. They learn, laugh, and form lasting friendships. This is the Nerinx Hall experience. We can’t wait for you to be a part of it.

The admissions process at Nerinx Hall emphasizes the whole student. We want to know about accomplishments in and out of the classroom, honors and awards, hobbies, service projects, and sports interests. 

As a college-preparatory institution, admission to Nerinx Hall is competitive and based on grades, standardized test scores, a writing sample, and a personal family interview. Academic records from the 6th through 8th grades are reviewed for admission purposes.  

Nerinx Hall follows the policies and timeline as outlined by the St. Louis Archdiocese Catholic Education Office.
