Do you accept home schooled students?

Absolutely. We welcome home school, public school, and private school students alike. Except for a short one-page document we ask home schooled students to sign, our Admissions procedure for home school students is exactly the same as it is for everyone else. Home schooled students can apply for admission here.

How soon will I find out if I am accepted?

Staff in the Office of Admissions sends the acceptance letter out on the day all necessary completed paperwork is received. Students will likely be informed of their acceptance within two to three weeks of receipt of all five documents (see above).

If you have a question we didn't answer, our Admissions team is glad to help.
