Am I at a disadvantage if I go to a public high school versus a Catholic high school?

When reading an application, we do not put any preference on the type of school a student attends. Rather, we look at the strength of the school. To get a feel for a school’s strength, we look at its graduation rates, the percentage of its graduates who go on to two-year and four-year colleges, the types of classes offered, and the average SAT and ACT scores of the graduating class, among other factors. For the entering first-year class in fall 2022, 45 percent of students attended a public high school, 36 percent attended a Catholic high school, and 19 percent attended a private or chartered high school.
