How
and when do I apply?
Undertake
your search in the September of the year prior to the date
of your child’s enrollment. All NJAIS schools now have
websites which can
be accessed. After reviewing the information
on NJAIS schools, call or e-mail schools for their literature.
When you have determined which schools seem most appropriate
for your child, contact the admission office to arrange a
tour of the campus or to attend an open house. Most schools
begin accepting applications in the fall preceding the September
of the student’s admission and continue to do so well
into the school year. Consult the specific schools for their
admissions deadlines.
Admission processes vary, but usually
include:
- Application
and fee submission
- A
classroom visit and/or interview
- Standardized
testing
- Receipt
of transcripts
- RecommendationsIndependent
