Admissions Process
Our admissions process begins by building a relationship with your family and is designed to help us get to know each girl personally. Our goal is to make the application process as streamlined as possible. The Admissions Team is here to guide you through every step of the way with personalized attention, and we look forward to working with your family!
Admissions decisions are based upon entrance testing, previous and current school records, personal interviews, and availability of openings. As a convenience to our applicant families, we utilize an electronic notification and enrollment process.
We have completed our first round of admission decisions for Fall 2022, but we will continue to accept applications for select grades. Please contact our office by calling (804) 281-7140 to connect with an admissions representative about anticipated availability in a grade.
