What makes Cathedral a Top High School? Academic success has been synonymous with Cathedral since its founding in 1905. As a college preparatory school, it has educated generations of young women to meet their scholastic potential. They offer a number of Honors and AP Courses, as well as Academies in the field of Medicine, Law & Business and STEM.
Students in these programs are placed as interns in institutions such as Lenox Hill Hospital, Mount Sinai Medical Center and at prestigious New York law firms. They offer a very competitive tuition and graduates earn over millions of dollars in college scholarships and grants.
