While it required an entrance exam for admissions (and exempted those who failed from the required attendance in the Catholic school system), Rex Mundi benefited from the diocesan attendance policy and soon was full to overflowing. The school was closed by the diocese in March 1972. Famous alumni include former All-American quarterback Bob Griese. (en)
