  • To Students and Families Applying to Washington-Area Independent Schools for Admission in 2019-2020 AISGW Member Schools
    To Students and Families Applying to Washington-Area Independent Schools for Admission in 2019-2020 To promote a fair and transparent admission process, the member schools of the Association of Independent Schools of Greater Washington (“AISGW”) have established the following guidelines for working with families and students applying to their schools. All AISGW schools and applicant families are expected to abide by these guidelines. Schools should make clear to applicants all dates pertaining to admission and re-enrollment. AISGW recommends the following timeline: • Notification Date - Notification of admission decisions shall be the first Friday in March (March 1, 2019). Electronic notification, which includes email, telephone, on-line portal or any other form of instant notification, shall not occur before 4 pm. Letters may be placed in the U.S. mail so as to be received on the first Friday in March. • Registration/Reply Date - Enrollment contracts for newly admitted students are due back to the school no earlier than the third Friday in March (March 15, 2019), or two weeks from the date of notification. • Tuition Binding Date - Enrollment contracts for newly admitted and re-enrolling students are binding as of 4:00 pm on June 1. This means that schools may not release the tuition obligation of a family that has already enrolled unless the family notifies the school of its decision to enroll elsewhere by 4:00 pm on June 1. If June 1 falls on a weekend, the binding date shall be 4:00 pm on the immediately preceding Friday. Upon receipt of an application, member schools of AISGW presume that if an applicant is currently enrolled at another independent school, the applicant’s family already has notified that school of an intention to apply elsewhere in the independent school community.
