Application Process

Step 1: Apply Online

Our application process is completed online through TADS, a third-party service that captures all the relevant information for your student's application. TADS handles admissions, enrollment, documents, and more. Create a free account and manage everything in one place.

Additional Details

  • Admissions will be handled on a first come, first serve basis until we reach capacity for the 2025-2026 school year.

  • If you have any questions before applying, please contact our admissions team.

Step 2: Family Interview

Each family (student and parents) will also need to take part in a short interview. The purpose is to ensure that both the family and the school are a good fit for one another.

After the application process is complete, and all materials (report cards, teacher letters, transcripts, and student essay) have been reviewed and approved by Chesterton Academy staff, qualifying students will receive an acceptance letter.

Step 4: Enrollment

Finally, after acceptance, you are ready to enroll your student in the school! This involves signing a tuition agreement, setting up tuition payments, meeting the other students, families, staff, and teachers, and preparing for the upcoming school year.
