Seton Hall Prep is New Jersey’s oldest Catholic college preparatory school. The Prep's tradition is matched by its commitment to the education of young men by teaching them to think critically, communicate effectively and become contributing members of society.
We strive to ensure our students learn to think critically, communicate effectively, and appreciate diversity. The Prep is a truly special place where students are molded into men of character and faith, and are given the tools to become contributing members of society.
At Seton Hall Prep, our students are pushed to look at, think about, and respond to the changing world around them critically, effectively, and sincerely through four years of rigorous education. They learn to think of themselves, their communities, and their society broadly and deeply within our Catholic Mission.
At Seton Hall Prep, students participate in many of the amazing offerings available to them outside of the classroom. This includes 15 sports, more than 70 activities and clubs, a variety of intramurals and a seemingly endless number of service projects.
“To equip the holy ones for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, until we all attain to the unity of faith and knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the extent of the full stature of Christ.”
Attending The Prep means a lifelong bond with your Alma Mater. Our Alumni network is 11,000+ strong and our Alumni Office is here for you. Please be sure to stay connected to The Prep so that we can better serve each other.
Your support of The Prep ensures that we carry on our rich tradition and storied history of providing an outstanding Catholic education to young men from all walks of life, and remain competitive with the best of America's college prep schools.
We’ve all benefited from the generous contributions of the Pirates who came before us, and now it’s our turn to support the Pirates who will follow. Giving your Senior Class Gift helps support both current and future Pirates, ensuring that Seton Hall Prep continues to thrive.
Here is a special message from Board of Trustees member and proud alumni parent Mary Beth Childs H'20, P'07, P'09:
"As you prepare for graduation, it's important to realize that the future of Seton Hall Prep starts with you. Giving back to The Prep, now and in the future, will ensure that students continue to have the same opportunities and experiences that you had these past 4 years. Here's the challenge: if every senior donates $20.25 to SHP by Bleed Blue Giving Day (May 8), I will match that donation and also provide special desserts for the Senior Class on May 29, 2025, your rehearsal day."
