Admissions Process
The Admissions Process
The Adelson School is an independent, college-preparatory Jewish school serving students from Preschool (18 months) through Grade 12. Choosing a school is an important decision. Our admissions process is designed to give families a meaningful way to get to know The Adelson School while giving us the opportunity to get to know each applicant and family.
Financial Aid
Need-based financial aid is available to qualifying families with students in Kindergarten–Grade 12. Financial aid funds are limited and awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, so families seeking assistance are encouraged to begin the financial aid application early and complete it alongside the admissions process.
Financial aid awards are communicated only in conjunction with an offer of admission.
