Admissions

Admissions takes a holistic approach to every application.

A Holistic Approach

Our Admissions team evaluates every application holistically. For example, while we value grades and test scores, we also look closely at each applicant’s school activities, community involvement, nonprofit work, and personal interests. Ultimately, we strive to build a well-rounded student body of young people ready to challenge themselves.

Admissions works with families to afford the cost of tuition.

Financial Aid

We recognize that the full cost of a Springdale education may exceed some family budgets. Therefore, to help families finance this opportunity, we offer need-based aid to those who demonstrate financial necessity. In fact, our financial aid program specifically bridges the gap between tuition costs and what a family can afford.

Tuition varies for the kind of application, whether day or boarding.
