Notes for Prospective Students
As you would expect, it is the goal of the Dwight-Englewood
School to enroll dynamic classes of talented, motivated and
responsible students. We seek academically strong students with the
skills, interests and commitment that will enhance our academic
community and contribute to the life of the school in a variety of
ways, including the arts, athletics, leadership and service.
We value diversity and varying perspectives within
Dwight-Englewood. Acceptance to Dwight-Englewood is selective:
offering places to students whose abilities fall within a range
that is likely to predict success in our academic program. In
addition, we consider greatly the degree to which students express
a commitment to participating in the life of the community as well
as uphold the core values and ethical standard set within our
community. Admissions decisions, which are determined by an
Admissions Committee, are based on the following areas:
● Academic record and
recommendations
● Admissions testing
● Interview
● Demonstrated talent,
interest, and experience that enhance the class and school
● School readiness, behavioral
maturity and motivation to learn
● Student writing samples
● Comparison with other
applicants in the pool
By outlining the factors considered, we hope you will understand
how important each component of the application is to the committee
in determining admission.
