Application Timeline

Apply by February 3rd: 

Once students decide to apply, the first step is to complete the student application. The application includes short answer questions and personal statement for students, a brief section for parents/guardians and a Teacher Recommendation Form, which will be sent directly to the teachers electronically. You will also have to submit a copy of your most recent report card. Paper applications are available at your student’s school.

Sign-up for an in-person Student & Family Interview:

The second step in the process is student and family interview day. Each applicant and a family member is invited to our offices at the Foundry in Mid-February for a chance to  learn more about the program, participate in a challenging group activity and complete an individual interview.

Check your mailbox:

Admissions decisions are mailed to families approximately 4-6 weeks after they have participated in Interview Day.

Accept your spot:

Upon acceptance to the program, students and families are expected to attend our Summer Orientation, typically held in Mid-May.
