Fall 2022 It is our plan to continue offering Tuesday and Thursday campus tours/interviews to prospective families. These individual parent meetings provide an opportunity to answer your initial questions about our community and to have you learn more about our admissions process, as it now stands. Following this visit, families will receive access to our online Kindergarten 2023 application. To schedule your tour/interview, please fill out an Inquiry Form and respond to the confirmation email inviting you to reach out to Ninette Zubia in our office.
Until further notice, all tours may require proof of vaccination or a negative PCR COVID-19 test taken within 48 hours of your visit. Upon scheduling your interview, you will receive instructions for uploading those documents.

Families Applying for Grades 1–6 for Possible Entry In 2023
Grade-level applications are accepted on a rolling basis throughout the year, following a parent tour and interview. Families who have submitted completed applications by January 15 will have the greatest opportunity to be considered on our March admit date for the following September. Families that apply later in the cycle will be considered for openings that arise throughout the Spring and Summer.
After November 1, 2022 Parents interested in placing their child(ren) in Grades 1-6 for September 2023 may join our Grade Level process starting November 1, 2022. Please fill out an Inquiry Form and email us per the confirmation instructions to schedule a tour and interview.
Prospective students will be invited to undergo an admissions assessment once student openings are determined, typically beginning in February of each year.
Students to be assessed are selected from an applicant pool and a wait pool. Carlthorp School strives to select students who are the best “match” for the class and for the space that has become available. We do not keep a ranked list.
