Let the school know you're thinking of applying — they can share their prerequisites and help you through the process.
It's best to ask — circumstances can change at any time.
1. Begin by completing the Carleton College Online Application. The online form is titled "Carleton College Online Application" and is the starting point of the admissions process. It is accessed through the admissions pathway on the site. The page outlines the structure of the application and the requirements that follow.
2. Submit required documents. Applicants must present a successful report card from the current school year and a behavior certificate or letter of good conduct from the current school. These documents accompany the online application to support the evaluation of the applicant.
3. Enrollment is dismissed if the required documents are not provided prior to July 31.
4. If enrollment occurs after July 1, all required documents must be completed within two weeks from the acceptance date. Failure to complete documents within this window leads to enrollment dismissal.
5. Preschool and PYP 1 applicants must be toilet trained when joining the school; no diapers are allowed.
6. Acceptance is confirmed by indicating understanding and agreement to the terms and conditions listed on the form and selecting "I accept".
