Answers to Frequently Asked Questions

Admissions

  • The admissions timeline depends on when you apply. If you submit your application by our Round 1 Priority Deadline (January 16), you can expect to receive an admissions decision in early March. After the priority deadline, we move into rolling admissions in which applications are reviewed as they are received. During this time, families typically receive a decision within four weeks of submitting a completed application.

    We’re here to guide you through every step of the process and look forward to welcoming you to our community!
