Admissions Process

The Meridian School is an inclusive, diverse school with students of all different abilities, races, religions, and nationalities. We take care in reviewing your child’s application and supporting documents to determine proper placement, and in meeting with you and your child to ensure that the school is a good fit for him or her.

 

Students entering our Foundations through Upper Preparatory classes are not required to sit an exam and are enrolled on a first come, first served basis. Class sizes are no more than 20 students. Students may be placed on a waiting list and notified by administration should a seat become available. Applicants for Grades 1–6 are required to sit an entrance examination and submit payment of the $50.00 testing fee. Upon submission of the application form, supporting documents, and passing results on the entrance examination, the applicant may be accepted. Additionally, admission and placement decisions may be based on the student’s age.

 

Foundations – Two years old by September

Lower Preparatory – Three years old by September

Middle Preparatory – Four years old by September

Upper Preparatory – Five years old by September

 

The school reserves the right to require additional supplementary measures at parental expense, if deemed necessary, to ensure the success of all students. This may include, but is not limited to, the student spending a half or full day at the school for observation and interaction with peers.

 

Acceptance is not final until the entire application process is completed, including submission of supporting documents, testing, payment of the testing fee, and an interview with the Principal. Once accepted, conditionally accepted, or placed on the waiting list, parents will receive an acceptance letter and information packet welcoming you to our Meridian Family.
