Admissions Process

Step 1. Attend a Dominion Informational Meeting and Complete Required Readings
All prospective families must attend a Dominion Informational Meeting and read the Dominion Statement of Faith, the Student/Parent Handbook and An Introduction to Classical Education: A Guide for Parents by Christopher Perrin before making application to the school. All items are available from Dominion.

Step 2. Pray for the Lord’s guidance in this decision for your family.

Step 3. Application Form and Fee
Complete and return the Application form and other required documents (found within the Info Packet) with a $100 application fee for each new student. This fee is non-refundable. If applicable, also complete and submit an Application for Financial Assistance online at FACTS Tuition Assessment. (More information about FACTS.)

Step 4. Family Interview
Upon receipt of your completed admission application(s), other required documents, and fee (and financial assistance application, if applicable), a family interview with the board/headmaster will be scheduled. At the interview, the family’s questions about Dominion will be answered, and the school’s expectations will be clarified. Each parent and student must participate in the family interview.

Step 5. Student Testing
Math, reading, and writing entrance assessments will be administered as part of the admissions process to determine that the student is at least on grade level in basic academic skills.

Step 6. Notification
The school will contact the parents with the decision regarding acceptance. If accepted, the family will receive a letter of acceptance and an enrollment contract. The school will also notify parents with respect to decisions regarding any requests for financial assistance.

Step 7. Registration
The enrollment contract must be signed and returned to the school with the registration fee ($100 for K4, $150 for K5 and $200 for grades 1-7). All financial arrangements between the family and the school must be clearly understood before the admissions process is considered final. Families are strongly urged to attend the annual parent orientation meeting held at the beginning of the new school year.
