Steps to Admission
Submit Your Online Application
Complete and submit the online admissions application. Once your application has been received, our Admissions Office will contact you regarding the next steps.
Student Testing
After receiving your application, we will schedule your child for admissions testing. You will be notified of the date and time once testing has been scheduled. A non-refundable testing fee of $25 per child is required.
Parent Interview and Review
Following testing, parents will meet with the Director of Guidance to discuss the results and their child’s educational needs.
Admission decisions are based on several factors, including academic records, character, testing results, and the student’s potential for success at IWA.
Enrollment Agreement
Once your child has successfully completed the admissions process and has been accepted, you will receive an Educational Agreement, which serves as the enrollment contract. The agreement must be signed and returned along with the non-refundable registration fee.
Class Placement
Upon receipt of the completed Educational Agreement and registration fee, your child will be placed on the appropriate class roll or waiting list, depending on availability.
Currently enrolled IWA students receive priority for available spaces in the next grade level until our annual Open House. Following Open House, remaining spaces are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
