The inquiry form is the first way you’re able to share your interest in joining our community! The inquiry form for the 2027-2028 school year will open later this summer. Be sure to join our mailing list in the meantime!

The application for the 2026-2027 school year is now closed, as the deadline was January 7.

Our admissions application for the 2027-2028 school year will open in September 2026.

The admissions application should be completed by an applicant’s responsible parent/guardian. Flintridge Prep’s admissions application fee is $150 and must be paid when submitting your application. If you plan on applying for need-based financial aid and would like to request an application fee waiver, please reach out to admissions@flintridgeprep.org.

We invite you to visit our campus! Exploring our campus provides you with the opportunity to learn more about the different spaces our students have to grow and thrive in.

Campus tours are held throughout the fall, beginning in October 2026. We encourage you to save the date for our Admissions Open House, which is scheduled for Saturday, October 17, 2026, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

While our Open House and campus tours have concluded for the 2026-2027 school year, please join our mailing list for a future school year.

As a part of our admissions application, we require three years of past transcripts, along with recommendation forms from your current school.

Recommendations are required from an administrator (such as a principal/head of school, vice principal, dean, guidance counselor, advisor, etc.), your current English teacher, and your current math teacher.

Flintridge Prep requires all applicants to submit standardized test scores as part of the admissions process.

Applicants are required to take either the Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE) or the Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT). The decision to require a standardized test score has been made with your child’s success and wellbeing in mind. 

We do not have a preferred test; both will be considered equally in the admissions process. Tests are offered in person and online, and students can register for the format that is most convenient and comfortable for them. Note: Applicants for grades 10-11 may submit PSAT, SAT, or ACT scores in lieu of the ISEE or SSAT. 

When registering for your test, request that results be sent to Flintridge Prep. Our school code is 1335 for the SSAT and 052375 for the ISEE. Be careful to check when test results are released so that we receive scores by the deadline. Registration fees vary depending on the test format. For more information about registering for an exam, check out our Guide to Registering for the SSAT or ISEE.

While testing can take place in-person and online, Flintridge Prep is hosting a paper-based, in-person ISEE on Saturday, December 5, 2026. 

To inquire about fee waivers for either exam, please email admissions@flintridgeprep.org.

Students are asked to participate in teacher-led activities similar to the collaborative opportunities typical of the Flintridge Prep experience.

While students participate in the group activity, parents/guardians engage in small-group conversations with our admissions team and/or other school administrators to learn about Flintridge Prep and ask questions about our community. 

Note that you must submit an admissions application in order to schedule your activity day.

Out-of-Area Applicants

While all applicants are strongly encouraged to visit campus and join us for a group activity day, students applying from outside Southern California may request a virtual interview in lieu of participating in a group activity. Please reach out to the Admissions Office if you have any additional questions. 
 

The financial aid application for 2026-2027 school year is closed. The application for the 2027-2028 school year will open in September 2026.

Flintridge Prep awards financial aid based on a family’s calculated financial need in amounts ranging from 10% to 100% of tuition and school costs. There are no merit or talent-based awards. If the cost of a Flintridge Prep education feels out of reach based on your family’s financial circumstances, we believe applying for financial assistance is worth exploring.
