Application Process
Your Path to Becoming a Lancer
Applying to La Salle is an important step in your family’s high school journey. Our admissions process is designed to help prospective students and families experience La Salle, understand the opportunities available, and move through each step with confidence. Whether your son is beginning eighth grade, preparing for the High School Placement Test, or considering a transfer, our Admissions Office is here to guide you from first inquiry to enrollment.


Start with an Admissions Account
The first step in the application process is to create an online admissions account. This account gives families access to the application, admissions checklist, event registration, teacher recommendation forms, and other important steps. Families who are still exploring La Salle are also encouraged to complete an inquiry form. This allows our Admissions Office to learn more about your family and help you stay connected throughout the admissions process.

Explore La Salle
Prospective students and families are encouraged to attend events, visit campus, and see firsthand how La Salle helps young men grow academically, spiritually, socially, and personally. From Open House to Shadow Days, each visit gives families a closer look at the brotherhood, energy, and opportunities that define the Lancer experience.

Take the High School Placement Test
The High School Placement Test is an important part of the admissions process for incoming freshmen. The test helps La Salle better understand each student’s academic strengths and supports appropriate course placement. Families should review the HSPT page for registration information, testing details, preparation opportunities, and important deadlines.
