1. Step 1 — Student Inquiry Form & Veracross Account: Begin by submitting the Student Inquiry Form so the school can prepare for your visit. After submission, you receive instructions to create a Veracross account, which gives you access to the SG Admission Portal. This first contact helps the admissions team tailor next steps to your family's needs. Ensure you complete the inquiry form so your visit can be scheduled smoothly.

2. Step 2 — Interview & Tour: Interviews are offered in person or via Zoom to accommodate family schedules. A campus visit includes a group tour, an interview with an admission associate, and a parent/guardian wrap-up. If you choose Zoom, the interview covers the same topics with the admission team and a separate conversation with a parent. Log in to the SG Admission Portal to schedule your interview slot.

3. Step 3 — Testing (optional) and English-language requirements: St. George's does not require formal testing as a general rule. Exceptions exist for certain academic histories, in which SSAT results may be requested if a student provides non-traditional evaluations. Applicants whose first language is not English must demonstrate English proficiency by submitting TOEFL, Duolingo, or IELTS results and meeting the stated minimums. Tests can be arranged in fall and winter each year.

4. Step 4 — Complete and Submit the Application by the deadline: The completed application must include a candidate profile, student essays, a parent statement, a school report with transcript, a graded writing sample, recommendations, and an application fee. The deadline for submission is January 15, 2026. You can view your status in the SG Admission Portal under the checklist.

5. Step 5 — Decisions Announced: Admission decisions are released on the morning of March 10 in the SG Admission Portal. Families can view the decision status online and any next steps immediately after the decision is posted. Plan your calendar around this date to avoid last-minute uncertainties.

6. Step 6 — Revisit & Enroll: For those offered admission, there is an opportunity to revisit St. George's in April 2026. The revisit helps families confirm fit and finalize enrollment arrangements, including next steps for any required financial or administrative processes.

St. George's does not offer merit-based or academic/athletic scholarships.

The admissions process includes a financial-aid consideration. If a family is admitted but cannot be offered financial assistance, the student will be placed on a wait list for a space until funds and a place become available. This means there is a financial-aid–driven wait list rather than a general, unconditional wait pool.
