Allen Academy Admissions

The Path to College Starts Here!

Welcome! On behalf of the faculty and staff at Allen Academy I thank you for your interest in our school. 

Allen Academy is a focused college preparatory school. Through a combination of great teachers, small classes, a broad Advanced Placement curriculum and high standards, we are focused on developing well-rounded students prepared for the rigors of college and life beyond the classroom.

Our students thrive because we work closely with them to determine their gifts and strengths in a nurturing environment. At Allen, we want our students to try many different things, and we encourage them to participate in the fine arts, athletics, clubs and community service as well as academics. Pursuing a wide range of interests puts them firmly on the path to college. It's for that reason that 100 percent of our students are accepted to a college of their choice each year.

We also provide beginning-to-end college counseling and are putting in place our innovative College Checkpoints program that will help parents and students understand where they are in the process, even if they are just getting started in school.

We appreciate how significant a decision it is to enroll your student in a private school. Please let me know how I can help you in this process.

Admissions Philosophy

It is the philosophy of Allen to enroll families, not just students. Parents, legal guardians, grandparents, and all other family members play an integral role in every child's education.

By enrolling your child at Allen, parents agree to read, understand, and endorse the school's mission and policies. No school can succeed in fulfilling its mission unless parents are also committed to it. Maintain regular contact with your child's teachers, coaches, and advisor. Show your support and encouragement by participating in school activities and attending school events, especially those in which your child has a role to play.

Admissions Process

Allen Academy admits students of average to above-average ability to participate in an aggressive college-preparatory program that supports the holistic development of each and every child. Students of any race, creed, or national and ethnic origin are accepted to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded, or made available to students at the school. The school does not discriminate on the basis of race, creed, color, or national and ethnic origin in its administrative, educational, or admission, policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic or other school-administered programs.

The complete application process typically includes the following steps:

• A parent tour designed to orient parents to the overall program of the school. To schedule a tour, parents can contact us at 979-776-0731.     
• Submission of a completed application and non-refundable $100 application fee for PK1 and PK2 and $200 application fee for Kindergarten through 12th grade. A completed application includes two recommendations from teachers who have worked with the student previously.
• Admissions testing for students entering Kindergarten through 12th grade. After submitting an application, parents will be called to schedule this interview. 
• A visit by the prospective student. Parents will be contacted to schedule this visit.
