If you have not already done so, please consider making an appointment to visit. We would very much like to meet you and encourage you to tour our school and campus.

If You are Ready to Apply

To begin the Online Application process, first Create an Account. You will then receive an email containing a verification link. Once your email address has been verified, log in to your account and Create A New Student Application for your child. You will then have the flexibility to log in and out of your account and access your open application.

A non-refundable fee of $75 must be submitted with each application.

After submitting the application, you will be able to track your admissions status at the school by logging in to your account. In addition, you will be able to print the completed application, monitor when the school receives any applicable supplemental forms and, if necessary, reprint the forms.
