Brophy College Preparatory is a Catholic high school in Phoenix, Arizona, United States founded in 1928. The school has an all-male enrollment of approximately 1,400 students. It is operated independently of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Phoenix.

The school has three campuses: the main academic campus in north-central Phoenix at Central Avenue and Camelback Road, a retreat center called Manresa on the banks of Oak Creek near Sedona, and the nine-acre Brophy Sports Campus east of the academic campus in Phoenix and adjacent to the campus of the all-girls Xavier College Preparatory. Brophy has no diocesan or government financial assistance. Approximately 65% of the student body identifies as Catholic.[4]

Brophy College Chapel was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[5]
