Application Procedure

Step 1 - Download Instructions - Application Details

Step 2 - The Parent Statement (Form 1)
Parents are asked to share their perspectives on their student’s abilities and strengths, as well as areas where growth is desired. A current photograph of your child is requested to help the Admission Committee put a face with a name!

Step 3 - The Student Statement (Form 2)
The student will be asked to answer a series of questions designed to give the Admission Committee an understanding of his or her areas of interest, and to assist the Committee in making a decision that matches the student’s aptitudes and skills with our curriculum.

Step 4 - Request for Transcripts (Form 3)
We ask that you include the last two years of grade reports including any state testing results with your application. We do not require official transcripts directly from the students current school.

Step 5 - Schedule an Admission Interview
When you have submitted your forms to the Admission Office and are ready for a family interview, please give us a call. Admission interviews generally take about 20 minutes and are an informal, “get-to-know-you” time. The applicant will meet with the Director of Admission while the parents meet with the Director or Advancement to learn about the role of parents at St. Mary's.

Step 6 - Optional Shadow
Many families find it helpful to have the applicant "shadow" a host student for a day to get a first hand look at what St. Mary's is like. This is not a requirement, but we are happy to offer this opportunity. If you are interested please contact the Admission Office.

Decisions

Admission decisions will be mailed out by mid-March. Tuition grant decisions will be mailed by May 15. You will be notified by mail and will have two weeks to return the enrollment contract sent with acceptance letters.

After February 15 any remaining openings will be filled on a rolling admission basis. For these applications, the Admission Committee will mail decisions generally within two weeks of the interview.

If you have any additional questions, call Rebecca Naumes in the Admission Office at 541.773.7877 ext. 3108 or email admissions@smschool.us.
