Two business days after you have submitted your online application, you will be able to log back into the CHS Admissions portal to view your "checklist". The applicant checklist is where you will upload all required application documents, such as report cards, birth certificates, and residency documents. On your checklist you will also provide contact information for your chosen candidate reference, and schedule your interview (when applicable). 

In order to be considered for 2025 admission, all supporting documentation must be received by the following dates:

• Junior and Senior Kindergarten: December 6, 2024

Please note: Do not send additional items such as certificates, photos or additional reference letters–they will not be kept. Only the requested documents will be reviewed. If you would like to tell us about specific accomplishments, we encourage you to share these within the application responses, and/or during your interview.

In-house assessments and observations (for Junior and Senior Kindergarten applicants) help us get to know your daughter within a CHS context, and it helps her get to know us too. In order to be considered for admission, your daughter's participation at the assessment or observation is mandatory. Assessments and observations will happen in-person at Crofton House School. More details will be provided closer to the dates.

Grade 8 - 12
In House Assessment and SSAT 

Applicants to Grade 8 must participate in an in-house assessment on Monday, January 13, 2025. Applicants for Grade 8 - 12 must also write the SSAT - a standardized test used by admission offices to assess the abilities of students seeking to enrol in an independent school. 

In order to provide families with more options for testing dates, Crofton House School will be hosting a Closed Flex SSAT test for Grade 8 applicants in the Fall. Students who successfully submit an application will receive the Access Code to register for this test. It is not required that students take their SSAT at Crofton House. Families should find a testing date that best works for their schedule. Additionally, students only need to take one test, as the results can be shared with multiple schools. 

Dates: 

• Candidates for Grade 8 - 12 must write and submit their SSAT scores by Friday, February 7, 2025.

Visit SSAT.org for more information. 

Please note: there is no in-house assessment for Grade 9 - 12
