Start Your Application
On behalf of the New Edge community, thank you for your interest. The admissions process is a journey of discovery for both you and us, and we are here to be your guides.
We seek curious, kind, and motivated students who will contribute to our collaborative environment. We look forward to showing you what makes a New Edge education truly exceptional.
— Maria Chen, Director of AdmissionsWe've designed our process to be clear, personal, and comprehensive. Follow these steps to join the New Edge community.
Begin by exploring our website, downloading our viewbook, and attending a virtual information session or a campus tour. This is the perfect time to ask initial questions and get a feel for our community. You can submit an inquiry form online to connect directly with our admissions team.
Complete our online application and submit the required supplementary materials, which include student transcripts, teacher recommendations, and a parent statement. A non-refundable application fee is required upon submission. All materials must be received by the January deadline.
Once your application is complete, we will invite you and your child for an interview. This is a conversational meeting designed for us to get to know your child's personality and interests, and for you to ask in-depth questions. For younger students, this includes a classroom visit and a group activity.
Admissions decisions are communicated to all families in early March. Accepted students will receive an enrollment contract and information about next steps. We are here to support you in making your final decision and welcoming you to the New Edge family.
New Edge is committed to building a socioeconomically diverse student body. We offer a robust financial aid program for families who demonstrate need. Aid is awarded as a grant and does not need to be repaid. We encourage all interested families, regardless of their financial circumstances, to apply.
Approximately 35% of our students receive some form of financial assistance. All financial aid applications are confidential and are reviewed independently of the admissions process.
The best way to understand the spirit of New Edge is to see our community in action. We offer several ways for you to connect with us and explore our beautiful campus.
We pride ourselves on maintaining a low student-to-teacher ratio of 8:1. This ensures that every student receives personalized attention and mentorship, allowing our faculty to tailor instruction to individual learning styles and foster strong, supportive relationships.
The interview is a relaxed, conversational process. For students, it's a chance for us to learn about their interests, hobbies, and what excites them about learning. For parents, it's an opportunity to ask detailed questions about our philosophy, curriculum, and community. Our goal is to make it a comfortable and informative experience for everyone.
Yes, we offer both. New Edge provides several bus routes from surrounding neighborhoods for an additional fee. We also partner with a local, health-conscious catering company to offer a daily lunch program with a variety of nutritious options. More details are provided to enrolled families.
Our commitment to personalized education includes a robust Academic Resource Center (ARC). The ARC is staffed by learning specialists who work with students, teachers, and families to create and implement individualized learning plans. We aim to provide the necessary support for every student to thrive academically and socially within our challenging curriculum.
