  Admissions at Northmount School
  Northmount School follows a rolling admissions cycle, which means we accept applications throughout the year. However, spaces are limited, so we encourage families to apply early to secure a spot.

  To begin, please complete our online application form. A non-refundable $200 application fee is required at the time of submission.

  Once we receive your application, we will schedule a Family Interview and an Assessment Day for your son.

  Admissions decisions—whether acceptance, waitlist, or decline—are typically communicated within 10 days of completing the interview process.
