Admissions Process
Step 1 - Schedule a Shadow Day!
Prospective students should shadow to experience a typical day at the Academy.
Please email melanie.smith@chestertonguadalupe.org
Step 2 - Apply Online
Our application process is completed online through TADS, a third-party service which handles admissions and enrollment.
Step 3 - Placement Test
Incoming students take the CLT, which serves as a diagnostic tool to ensure students are placed in the appropriate section of each discipline. We offer it free of charge during enrollment season.
Step 4 - Family Interview
Each family (student and parents) will take part in an interview with the Headmaster. The purpose is to ensure that both the family and the school are a good fit for one another.
Step 5 - Acceptance & Enrollment
After the application process is complete, students will receive an acceptance letter. Finally, you are ready to enroll! Enrollment, documentation, and tuition agreements are completed through the same TADS portal you created with your original application.
Thank you for entrusting Chesterton Academy of Our Lady of Guadalupe with your child’s education!
