Georgetown Preparatory School

Georgetown Preparatory School describes its approach as a Jesuit education that forms students intellectually, morally, and spiritually for lives of solidarity, service, and professional success. It emphasizes educating the whole person—mind, body, and spirit—through cura personalis (personalized care for each individual) and a holistic curriculum. The school also highlights Jesuit principles such as intellectual excellence, reflection, and personal responsibility as central to how students learn and grow.

Georgetown Prep’s application process begins by submitting the online Inquiry Form to create a Veracross Admissions Account, then registering for events such as “Hoya for a Day” and the Open House. (gprep.org) Applicants must submit SSAT scores to complete the application (the site notes January 10 is the latest SSAT test date for the admissions year, and it lists on-campus SSAT dates for 2026–27 applicants). (gprep.org) After the application essay portion is submitted, families can schedule an admissions interview via the portal; interviews include both a student interview and a parent/guardian conversation, and applicants are asked to bring updated 7th and 8th grade report cards. (gprep.org) For the 2026–27 cycle, the site lists key dates including an application deadline of January 9, 2026; decisions posted February 26, 2026 at 4:00 p.m.; Accepted Student Night on March 3, 2026; and enrollment due March 1 (day) or April 3 (resident), with boarding applicants advised to inquire about rolling admissions. (gprep.org) The admissions pages reviewed do not publicly describe a formal waitlist process or any priority categories (e.g., sibling/legacy preferences); for special situations (including boarding/rolling questions), the site generally directs families to contact the Admissions Office.
