How to Apply to Olney Friends School
Everything You Need to Get Started
Take the First Step to Olney
Welcome to Olney’s admission process. We’ve designed our application steps to be clear and straightforward for both domestic and international students. While international students have a few additional requirements to meet U.S. regulations, our admissions team is here to guide you through each step. Below, you’ll find our complete application process with special instructions for international students.
Domestic & International Applicants
Create an online account and start an application. Once you have created an account, you will be able to log in and out, revisiting and revising your application until you are completely satisfied with it and ready to submit.
International students must select ‘international’ from the grade level drop-down menu on the application.
Contact your past school to obtain your transcripts. Give your recommendation forms to the appropriate adults and ask them to return them to Olney Friends School via fax, email, or mail.
Olney Friends School must receive the following forms to complete your application:
- Recommendation from a Math Teacher
- Recommendation from an English Teacher
- Recommendation from an unrelated adult
- Copy of latest school transcripts
International students must also submit:
- Scanned copy of your current passport (as required by US law)
- Statements of your parents’ bank accounts for the last two years (proof of ability to pay tuition as required by US law)
Each application is subject to a processing fee. For international candidates, the application fee is $250.
Schedule a campus visit or a virtual interview.
We prefer that all prospective students visit campus, meet some of our current students and staff, and attend sample classes. This will allow prospective students to better understand what makes Olney Friends School unique.
For international students, we understand this may pose a significant challenge. In place of a formal campus visit, we require a formal virtual interview before a student can be accepted to the school.
Please direct any questions to our admissions department at admissions@www.olneyfriends.org.
