APPLICATION STEPS 


STEP ONE: APPLY USING YOUR RAVENNA ACCOUNT
You can complete the application form using your Ravenna Admissions Account. The form will collect information on the applicant, family, and current school.


STEP TWO: COMPLETE YOUR STUDENT ESSAY

The student essay can be completed using your Ravenna Admissions Account. The essay allows our admissions committee to learn more about you. It is important to our school that students answer the essay questions without help from other family members.

 
STEP THREE: SUBMIT YOUR OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT
Please print a transcript release form using Ravenna. Fill out the form and hand it to your current school’s registrar or main office. Your school will send official transcripts directly to our admissions office. Please allow time for processing.


STEP FOUR: EVALUATIONS/RECOMMENDATIONS
An administrator/counselor evaluation is a required part of our application process. We ask that your current administrator or counselor complete the form. Please use your Ravenna account to send the form to the appropriate person. Please allow time for processing. 

If you would like to submit additional letters of recommendation, please direct them to forms@xbhs.com or our mailing address:

STEP FIVE: STUDENT INTERVIEW 
A student interview is a required part of our transfer application process. Interviews are conducted by a member of the Xaverian community. Our committee includes teachers, counselors, campus ministers, administrators, and admissions staff. Parents or guardians will have an opportunity to meet with the interviewer at the end of the interview and are encouraged to ask questions at that time. Interviews can be scheduled using your Ravenna account.


FINANCIAL AID

All families are welcome to apply for need-based financial aid before the January 15, 2026 deadline. We are committed to providing a Xaverian education to every qualified young man, regardless of financial need. 

Last year, 56% of all Xaverian families received tuition assistance grants. The average annual cost for families receiving need-based financial aid is $14,277. In total, we awarded over $6 million in financial aid and academic scholarships. For more information, please visit our tuition assistance page.
