Interview

Meeting with prospective students and their parent or guardian helps us to determine the appropriate placement of your student in our school. During the interview, we give you an in-depth overview of our approach and an opportunity to discuss your questions about Waldorf Education.SM In addition, we’ll schedule a classroom visit, during which you and your student
will have a chance to see our facilities and get a better sense of our programs.

Acceptance

Admission decisions will be mailed by March 18, 2010. Upon receipt of your acceptance letter, you must return the commitment form, $200 tuition deposit and $500 new student fee by March 29, 2010. Our Admissions Director will then schedule an appointment with you to sign your tuition agreement, make payment arrangements, and fill out medical and authorization forms. Early Childhood Program class assignments will be mailed by June 1, 2010.

Tuition Agreement

This is the final step in our admission process. Once you’ve signed your tuition agreement and authorizations, and paid the non-refundable $500 new student admission fee and $200 tuition deposit, your child is ready to join his or her class. The tuition agreement must be signed and payment received prior to the first day of class. Your child’s teacher will contact you to gather more information about your child before school begins.
