How to Apply

New for 2020-2021 – Online Application

Thank you for your interest in Oakwood School. We have moved to an online application for the 2020-2021 school year. Our goal is to simplify the submission process and to provide parents with a tool for tracking the status of their application. There is a $75 application fee paid during the online application process.

When to Apply

We do offer rolling admission and will accept applications throughout the year for possible mid-year openings; however, our priority application deadline is January 30th for the following Fall. We encourage you to apply as early as possible to allow time for application review, and completion of the process. Applications submitted after January 30th will be considered after the priority application process is complete. Please contact the admission office to inquire about available spaces in your child’s grade level.

Step 4:

Educational Evaluation / Visit

If the Admissions Team believes your child will benefit from our program and an appropriate space is available, we will invite them for an Educational Evaluation. During the Educational Evaluation the potential candidate will participate in an interview with the Admissions Director, have an opportunity to tour the school meeting students and staff and complete placement testing with members of the Admissions Team.

There is a $300 fee for the Educational Evaluation and subsequent consultation.

Decision / Follow-up Conference

The Admissions Team reviews all testing from the Educational Evaluation to make a final decision. At the follow-up consultation parents are provided with the results of the evaluations and a final recommendation on placement is made. Acceptance packages are offered during the follow-up conference to students for whom Oakwood School is deemed an appropriate placement.
