Admissions Process
At American Christian School, we are honored that you are considering partnering with us in your child’s education. Our admissions process is designed to provide families with a clear understanding of our mission, community, and academic standards before applying. We look forward to meeting you and sharing how ACS can support your child’s growth—academically, spiritually, and personally.

1. Inquire
Begin your journey by completing our Inquiry Form. This allows our Admissions Office to connect with you, answer your questions, and guide you through the next steps OR feel free to jump to scheduling a campus visit (see step 2).
2. Campus Visit
Families are invited to experience our school firsthand by scheduling an admissions meeting and campus tour.
Meet with us when it is convenient for you and your family. BOOK YOUR TOUR HERE.
3. Academic Assessment
Following your visit, we invite students to be evaluated through an Academic Assessment ($40 fee) and a review of report cards, transcripts, and any IEPs or educational support documents.
4. Acceptance or Denial
Once the admissions review is complete, families will receive a formal notification regarding acceptance or denial of admission.
5. Apply for Enrollment
Upon acceptance, families will receive a link to complete the Enrollment Application.
6. Enrollment in ACS
Your student’s placement at American Christian School will be confirmed once all enrollment documents and fees are submitted. Our staff will then guide you through the next steps to prepare for your child’s first day as part of the ACS community.
*Wait Pool Information
Please note that several classes—particularly within our elementary grades—are currently full and operating with wait pools.
Families are welcome to schedule an admissions meeting and tour even if a desired class is full. These meetings allow your child to be considered for placement within the wait pool.
For additional information about current availability or wait pool status, please contact the Director of Admissions.
Thank you for your interest in applying to American Christian School (ACS).
