Admissions

How do we begin the process:
The application process begins by submitting our two-part application: one section for the student and one section for parents/guardians.

Where can I get an application?
If you prefer, you may also view our application and/or print it on-line.(The print version is a PDF which may require installing the free Adobe Acrobat Reader).

Why do students need to fill out part of the application?
We feel that teenagers need to make a conscious choice to come to this school.

Will I need to include an application processing fee?
Yes, a $50 non-refundable processing fee should be mailed to us with the application.

Is it necessary to have a personal interview?
As part of the application/re-application process we require students to schedule an interview with one of the high-school teachers. Only when this is absolutely not possible can we "meet" over the phone.

Why do you require a interview?
The interview is a time for applicants and teachers to review the application together, ask questions and tour the campus. This process usually gives the teachers and prospective students the opportunity to see if 'it's a match'.

When will I know if I have been accepted?
The decision to accept the student is generally made during this process or very soon after the visit.

When can I submit my application?
School applications may be submitted throughout the year.
