Admissions & Aid
We’re thrilled that you are interested in an FYHS education for your son! Throughout the admissions process, we will get to know each other and assess how we can best support your son to ensure his success.
We can't wait for you to join our extraordinary Yeshiva family!
Starting with the admissions process, we aim to keep you informed and engaged with everything related to your boys’ education and opportunities for growth. From final exam schedules to travel information for the annual ski trip, everything is clearly communicated to our parents.
In order to facilitate a close relationship between parents and our staff, FYHS has created the Yeshiva Parents Association (YPA). We hope you will be an active participant.

As such, during the registration process you will be prompted to login to your facts account or create an account if you do not already have one. Please complete a preliminary payment plan set up, so that when your tuition is determined your payment plan can begin in a timely fashion. You will not be charged for next year's tuition until a balance is put on your account. You will be asked to select a tuition payment option. This can be modified later or canceled if you pay in full. A non-refundable registration and tuition deposit is required for each student. See below for instructions to set up your FACTS Family Portal.

Annual Family Shabbaton Weekend
The single most important event that the Yeshiva parents has undertaken is the annual Yeshiva Parents Shabbaton. Families from across the United States and Canada join local families for a warm welcome to parent-teacher conferences; a tour of an exciting Chicago landmark; an Oneg Shabbos; a fun-filled Melave Malka; and a visit to our son's shiurim on Sunday morning. Previous Shabbatonim have helped create a unified parent body and many new friendships.
