We are so glad you are considering AHNS for your child! Here is a
guide through our admissions process.
Families interested in Arlington Heights Nursery School should make
arrangements to visit the school. During this visit, you will be given
a tour of the program you are applying to, and an opportunity to hear
about the school from an administrator, and ask any questions you
may have. These appointments are for adults only (babies are always
welcome). In order to apply to the school, please complete the application
form and return it along with a $50.00 non-refundable application
fee, made out to AHNS.
The application process is considered complete when we have received
the application completely filled out, the application fee submitted,
and when you have visited the school for a tour or open house. We
cannot offer you a space for your child, or place them on a waitlist,
until you have specified the program and schedule you are applying
for.
Children typically begin attending AHNS in September, but may enter
any time there is an opening. Applications for admission are accepted
anytime.
Our priority enrollment period, during which currently enrolled children,
their siblings, and children of alumnae parents receive priority in
admissions decisions, is complete in mid-January.
Families who apply in the fall and winter for placement the following
September can expect an admissions decision in February, or earlier,
whenever possible. If you are applying at other times during the year,
or for immediate entrance, you will be notified as soon as possible
after you have completed the application process.
Once the application process is complete, you will receive an acknowledgement
from us, either by letter or email, that we have received your application
and fee. The next communication you can expect from us will be either
offering your child a space, or informing you that they have been
placed on a waitlist.
If you are offered a space for your child and would like to accept
it, we require a one-month tuition advance to hold the space. This
advance is applied to the last month’s tuition for the year,
and is non-refundable, even if you choose later not to send your child
to AHNS.
Children who do not receive a space will be placed on our waitlist.
The waitlist is active, and our experience has been that many children
do get in from the waitlist every year. We are unable to give information
about where your child stands on the waitlist, as children are admitted
from the waitlist with consideration of many factors. The criteria
we use are: the date of application, age of child, requested schedule
and available spaces, and the composition of the entire class.
We are increasingly using email to communicate with families. Please
contact Margaret Potter at mpotter@ahnschool.org
to receive information about our programs or to arrange a time to
visit the school.......................................................................
We value diversity within our school community and do not discriminate
against individuals on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation,
gender identity, religion, disability, age, veteran status, ancestry,
or national or ethnic origin in the administration of admission policies,
educational policies and programs, and employment practices.
