Welcome and thank you for your interest in considering our school, Immaculate Conception Academy for your daughter. We take pride in ensuring that our transfer students will have a seamless transition from their former school to us with the host of support services we have to offer.
The primary goal of the Admission Committee is to offer enrollment to students who will be a good fit and be able to thrive at Immaculate Conception Academy. For this purpose, all applicants are required to undergo the admission screening process which includes an ONSITE admission test and an interview, if necessary. While the results of the screening process are the primary consideration, we look at the total picture of an applicant. Previous and current (to date) academic records, a strong recommendation from a former teacher/counselor, and more importantly, the desire of the parents to support the mission-vision of our school are also factored in the process as we evaluate each applicant.
Policy
- The Grade School is open to qualified applicants for Grade 1 to Grade 6 when there are available slots.
- The High School is open to qualified applicants for Grade 7 to Grade 11 when there are available slots.
