Sibling Admission

University Prep offers sibling applicants an early admission process. The early sibling admission process is an effort to alleviate some of the stress on current U Prep families associated with the independent school admission process. We understand the commitment of time and resources required to apply to several schools. While University Prep does not guarantee acceptance to siblings, our program is a good match for the majority of sibling applicants. The early sibling process allows current families time between decision notification from University Prep and the application deadline to other independent schools, should they need to explore other educational options for their child. We extend the courtesy of the early sibling process to children of faculty and staff.

Below are the early sibling admission dates for 2011-2012:

• October 13 - Online preliminary application deadline
• November - Campus visits and interviews, optional parent tours
• November 16 - Final application deadline
• December 15 - Decision notification
• February 16 - Enrollment contract and deposit deadline

In order to participate in this process, siblings must take the Independent School Entrance Exam by December 3, 2011. To begin the early sibling admission process, simply complete and submit the Online Preliminary Application with the $75 application fee by October 14, 2011. In addition to the online preliminary application, please remember the following items are due in the admission office by November 16, 2011:

• Student Essay and Parent/Guardian Statement
• Two completed Teacher Evaluation forms
• Official transcripts or school records
• Independent School Entrance Exam must be taken by 12/3/2011
