Our Application Process

  • To find out if Our Sisters’ School is a good fit, and to learn more about our program, join us for an introduction to OSS. As part of our application process, candidates are required to complete a one-hour Academic Assessment. This can be scheduled right after the Admissions Presentation and tour (for a limited number of students) or during an after-school time slot.

    Families also will be asked to sign a transcript release form as part of the admission process.

    Our next Admissions Presentation will be held on Saturday, January 25, 2025 at 10am. Use this link to register.

  • As part of our application process, each student takes an academic assessment. We offer an opportunity to take the one-hour assessment after the Admissions presentation.

  • As part of the application, families will need to provide contact information for current and former teachers so we may get in touch with them for recommendations.

    Families who do not meet our financial requirement will not be eligible to apply to OSS. Please review the Fuel Assistance Eligibility Guidelines to find out if you qualify financially. To be eligible for Fuel Assistance, your household's gross income must be less than or equal to 60% of the estimated state median income for your household size, as shown in the Fuel Assistance Income Limits. Household size is calculated as adults in a family unit, plus dependents. Based on the number of people in your household, look across to the column on the far right (60% of Estimated State Median Income) to see if your family's income is similar to or below this amount.

    Prospective students will be interviewed by the Head of School Ms. Herman, and an admission’s team member. Expect an hour-long interview that will include questions for both the student and their adult(s).

    If you would like a translator to be present for the interview, please communicate your request in advance.

  • Our admissions committee will evaluate candidates based on academic transcripts, teacher recommendations, the OSS Academic Assessment, and the Interview.

    We will communicate admission decisions with families at the end of each round. Students whose applications are incomplete or for whom we would like more information will be considered in the next round.
