Thank you for your interest in St. Joseph’s Academy. 

St. Joseph's Academy recognizes that students are not defined by one area alone. The Admissions Council uses a holistic approach that considers the student's classroom performance in 7th and 8th grades, standardized test scores, and her activities and involvement. The application process typically begins in the fall of a student's 8th grade year, after she has completed her Shadow Visit.
