Parent Application Guide
A parent-friendly walkthrough of what to prepare, how the online application works, and what to expect after you submit.
Application Process
The portal is designed to let families move steadily through the application while keeping every saved answer, document, and message in one place.
Enter the parent or guardian contact, student name, grade, student location, housing plan, admission term, and referral source.
Work through the sections in order. Later sections unlock as earlier ones are completed.
Before final submission, the portal asks a parent or guardian to verify their email with a secure magic link.
Upload the requested files from the Documents area. Admissions staff will review each upload.
Once every required section is complete, submit the application for admissions review.
Admissions may send messages, request clarification, or ask for an updated document before a decision is made.
Before You Start
Having these details nearby makes the application easier to complete in one sitting.
Application Sections

A last check of the completed application before the parent or guardian submits it.
After Submission
Parents can view the submitted application, but staff review begins from the submitted record.
Admissions reviews the application, documents, messages, and any needed follow-up items.
If the school needs clarification, portal messages remain attached to the application history.
Accepted students may receive checklist items such as agreements, acknowledgments, final documents, finance next steps, and dorm arrival details when applicable.
Common Questions

Submitted applications are locked for parent editing. Send a portal message if something needs to be corrected.
Use portal messages for application-specific questions so admissions staff can see the conversation with the record.
