Open House Registration Is Open
Belen, for the past 163 years, has been educating young men in the tradition of St. Ignatius of Loyola.
Our strong alumni association with over 7,000 members around the world, from Mumbai to the Philippines to the Amazonian jungles of Brazil, is a strong testament to what it means to “B Jesuit educated”.
I invite you to get to know us better by attending our annual Open House which will be held Saturday, October 7, 2017. This is the perfect opportunity for you and your son to find out what Belen has to offer. You will meet teachers, administrators, counselors, coaches, and alumni who will be more than happy to answer any questions you may have and share the unique and rich history of our school. You will also tour the campus guided by members of the Faber Society who will share with you their experiences and what it means to be a “man for others.” Registration is now open for either the morning or the afternoon session.
Incoming sixth and ninth graders are eligible to take the entrance exam which will be held Saturday, December 2, 2017 for prospective sixth graders and Saturday December 9, 2017 for prospective ninth graders. Pre-registration is required for both examinations and the deadline is 72 hours before the test. Pre-registration opens Monday, September 18, 2017. Please visit our website at www.belenjesuit.org/admissions for more details on what is covered on the entrance exam and what are the requirements for admission.
I look forward to meeting you at the Open House and guiding you through the admissions process. If you have any questions or concerns please contact the Admissions Office at (786) 621-4032 or e-mail us at admissions@belenjesuit.org.

Belen Jesuit Preparatory School was founded in 1854 in Havana, Cuba by Queen Isabel II of Spain. The task of educating students was assigned to the priests and brothers of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), whose teaching tradition is synonymous with academic excellence and spiritual discipline. In 1961, the new political regime of Cuba confiscated the School property and expelled the Jesuit faculty. The School was re-established in Miami the same year, and over the next decade, continued to grow. Today, Belen Jesuit sits on a 30-acre site in western Dade County, only minutes away from downtown Miami.
