Santa Fe Prep's current address is 1101 Camino de Cruz Blanca, 87505, Santa Fe, New Mexico. In 2001 Prep built a new School Commons. In 2006 the school completed a LEED Gold-certified library building that houses approximately 11,000 volumes.[2]

The campus is also the location of the Meem Art Building, which was originally the home of architect John Gaw Meem.
