Application Process

We welcome your interest in Trinity School at Greenlawn. Our goal is to make the application process simple and productive. We invite you and your child to participate in all the different ways to get to know us. Below are all the necessary forms for completing the application process. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Step 1: Attend an Open House

The best way to begin to get to know us is to attend one of our open houses. Teachers, parents and many students will be available to answer your questions. You will see the books used in the curriculum, learn about extracurricular activities and clubs, and find interactive displays that everyone in your family will enjoy, along with, yes . . . great refreshments.

Step 2: Apply for Admissions

The process begins in the fall of your child’s sixth grade or higher. Families must fill out the Application for Admissions and send it in, along with a $50 nonrefundable application fee. We are continuing to review applications for the 2010-2011 school year. In the event that a section is full, students will be placed on a waiting list.

Step 3: Submit Important Forms

Once the Application for Admissions is completed, a file is opened, and your child’s important forms will be placed in the file as we receive them.

Important Forms include:

Candidate’s Questionnaire must be completed in the student's own handwriting. This form should be mailed to the school office at Greenlawn before the scheduled, required interview.

English/Reading and Math References should be given to your child’s current teacher(s). You may wait until after your child’s first conferences, as long as we receive the references before the deadline. If you are homeschooling your child, we still want to hear from the person who is teaching the above subjects.

A Note about references. Providing a self-addressed stamped envelope with a deadline date attached may help expedite the process.

Transcript Release Forms: Download, print and sign the permission form for the school to release your child’s transcripts and health records. This should be submitted directly to your current school. Official transcripts must come directly from the current school to Trinity School.

Step 4: Schedule a Student Visit and/or Interview

Prospective students are invited to come spend a day with us. Please call to schedule a date; the office will provide information about what to bring and what to wear.

An interview with a faculty member is a part of the Trinity School admissions process. It will take 20 to 30 minutes. Since the interview is based in part on the Candidate's Questionnaire, please return this to the school before the interview. Please call the school office at 574-287-5590 to schedule a visit and interview.
