Timeline

There are two deadlines for Beginner applications: December 1 and January 15. We strongly encourage families applying for our Beginner program to apply as early as possible; demand for the program is high and we expect all seats to fill.

Families who apply by the December 1 deadline will receive an admission decision on January 29, 2025. For families who apply between December 1 and January 15, admissions decision letters informing applicants of acceptance, non-acceptance, or wait list status will be sent via email by March 10, 2025.

    Fill out an inquiry form here. The completion of an inquiry form registers you in our system so that we can communicate with you throughout the Admissions process and share important upcoming dates. This important step will also prompt our database to have you sign up for a school tour.
  • Step 2: Campus Tour and Interview
    We are thrilled to welcome visitors to the Wellan campus! You will be prompted to sign up for a campus tour when filling our the Online Inquiry.
  • Step 3: Apply
    Please complete items on your Application Checklist in the Admissions Portal.
  • Step 4: Classroom Observations
    Parent-only classroom observations will be hosted in the winter months following the submission of an application. This opportunity to visit a classroom will happen between 8:30 – 9:30am. When your Application Checklist is complete, we will be in touch to schedule an observation. Often, prospective parents find it helpful to have a sense of structure while observing. Please click here to download our Classroom Observation Guide so you can see how the visit is set up.
  • Step 5: Student Screening
    Student visits will be scheduled following the submission of an application and all other necessary paperwork. During this visit, you and your child will meet with Division Leader, Becky Alukonis, to enjoy an opportunity to get to know one another more and explore a Montessori environment. Admissions decisions will be offered to applicants via email on January 29, 2024 (early decision) or March 8, 2024 (regular decision).
