Collegedale Academy Admissions Process and Terms
1. Pre-Enrollment Process – The process of following the steps on the “Pre-Enrollment Checklist” to apply and submit all required paper work and records needed.
2. Apply/Applications – An annual process for all students interested in being a student at Collegedale Academy. A completed application holds a student’s spot, but does not guarantee acceptance.
3. Acceptance – Each student is re-accepted or accepted to CA each year once the admissions committee(s) review each application. Each student receives an acceptance letter each year. Even with an acceptance letter a student’s finalized acceptance is contingent on a financial plan.
4. Registration – The event/process in the summer (shortly before school starts) where accepted students go through an “admissions review” to ensure we have all paper work/records, tuition payments and other ancillary information for specific classes.
5. Orientation – A group event typically held for new CA students/families to familiarize them with the building and school schedule prior to or right after school starts, and after registration.
6. Enrollment/Enrolled – When a student has completed the registration process and begins attending classes at CA.
