In the meantime, here are some “next steps” you can take to continue moving forward with your child’s application. We look forward to meeting you!
Considering Cajal Academy for your child? Here are some Next Steps to move the process along:
Start your online application
Our application doesn’t require any student essays, and there’s no need to alert your current school. Here’s what’s required to complete the application:
Complete our parent questionnaire
Upload any evaluations, assessments, and IEP/504 plan (if any) at the end of our form
$125 application fee to partially defray the costs of our clinical review
If it seems like your child might be a good fit for our program after an initial review, we will invite your child for a day on site with us, so they get to experience Cajal for themselves before making any commitments.
Have questions you’d like to discuss with our admissions team?
We will share everything you could want to know about our program at our Information Session and will stick around until ALL your questions have been answered, but we understand that sometimes a family needs to make decisions before the next event, or has specific questions about their child’s needs. You can schedule a private Zoom with our Admissions team here:
