Steps for Applying
List of 5 items.

Step 1: Documentation >
To begin the admissions process, we require the following information:- A psychoeducational evaluation current within 3 years, which includes a WISC-V and achievement testing in: READING, LANGUAGE, SPELLING, WRITTEN LANGUAGE and MATH.
- If applicable, a SLEP, TOEFL, or Junior TOEFL
- If applicable, a current Individual Education Plan (IEP)
- A formal application
- School transcript

- $75 application fee ($100 for international applicants)
Parents are responsible for making certain that the forms are completed and returned to the Admissions Office in a timely manner. -
Step 2: Review >
Once a candidate’s application file is complete, Greenwood’s Admissions Office reviews it. -
Step 3: Interview and Tours >
If we feel the student is potentially a good candidate for our program, then we will invite the student to come for an interview and tour of our program. The interview process takes approximately three hours, and it is nothing to feel anxious about. We see this as a way for the family to understand more about how we can individualize our program to meet their son right where he is, and for the candidate to have the opportunity to meet with faculty and students and have his questions answered.In addition, at this point you will be asked to submit the following forms:- A Teacher Recommendation
- A Principal/Counselor Recommendation
- A Character Recommendation
- A Preliminary Health Form
Please contact Tracy Wheeler in the Admissions Office to access these. -
Step 4: Notification >
An admissions officer will notify the parents or guardians via mail of the admission decision. Once the school is at capacity, candidates who qualify for admission will be placed in a waiting pool. -
Step 5: Acceptance and Deposit >
We ask that an offer of admission be accepted within two weeks of notification, at which time a deposit is requested to hold the space. Tuition is traditionally paid by September 1st.Applying to schools can be a time-consuming process, and we are happy to assist families in answering questions and resolving difficulties that arise during the application process. Please call or e-mail us if you have any questions or concerns.
