Getting Started
The Greenwich Academy Admission team is ready and available to connect with you! We look forward to meeting your daughter and family through our application process.
Part I: Inquire & Apply
Due as soon as possible before December 15, 2022
The application requirements are slightly different for each division. You can start by inquiring and creating an account in our online application tool, Veracross. Or, if you are planning to apply to multiple schools in the area, we also accept the Standard Application Online (SAO), which is a common application accepted by many Fairfield and Westchester County schools. Please do not submit applications through both Veracross and SAO.
Once you submit the application and fee*, our office will contact you to schedule an interview.
*The fee is waived if you are applying for financial aid; please contact our office for the waiver code.
Part II: Interview, Testing, and Supplementary Materials
Due before January 15, 2023
Please read below for grade-specific interview, testing, and supplementary materials.
Just a couple more things...
Expansion Years
Just as there’s an admission cycle to the school year, there’s also an admission cycle to the school divisions. At certain grade levels, classes grow and admit more students. GA has several expansion years:
Pre-Connecting
Connecting
Group V
Group VI
Group IX
Group X
Grades
At GA, we call grades Groups. Also, here grade numbers are noted in Roman numerals. So what would be grade 8 at most other schools, at GA is Group VIII. And so on.
School breakdown
GA’s division breakdown doesn’t always match up exactly with that of other schools. Please note how we comprise each division:
Lower School = PC & CC, Groups I-IV
Middle School = Groups V-VIII
Upper School = Groups IX-XII
Pre-K & K
At GA, pre-kindergarten is called Pre-Connecting Class and kindergarten is referred to as Connecting Class. Less formally, it’s PC & CC.
Tuition & Affordability
At GA, we match our mission to educate talented girls of exceptional character with a commitment to fostering a socioeconomically diverse community, and we are fortunate to be able to offer financial aid to more than 20% of the student body. The application deadline for financial aid is December 15, 2022.

For students applying to multiple schools, GA accepts the Standard Application Online, or SAO.
