8th Grade Admissions Process

Shadow Days provide prospective students an invaluable opportunity to gain insight into our comprehensive academic programs, co-curricular activities, and rich traditions that shape our school and make us unique in a city with so many incredible options for an all-girls education. Whether your passions lie in STEM, arts, humanities, or athletics, our goal is to help you find your way to thrive and excel. You'll attend 3 classes paired with a current student in your grade, or if you know a current student, you're able to request them as your Hostess for the day.

Available Shadow Days are February 11, February 25, and March 4

Click here to create an account on the Nerinx Hall Admissions Parent Portal. The portal provides a checklist of information needed to complete the admissions process. You'll be able to complete the application form, check the status of your daughter's application, and more. Please write down/save your sign-in information and password; you will access the Admissions Parent Portal throughout the admissions process.

The application has multiple components that must be completed on the Parent Portal:

• Parental Supplemental Form
• Student Writing Response
• Student Activities and Awards List
• Academic Transcripts - you will send a request for your daughter's transcripts in the Parent Portal.

Families can schedule a 20 minute interview in the Parent Portal. The applicant and at least 1 parent/guardians must attend. Interviews are available on December 3, 4, 9, and 10 and all take place in person at Nerinx Hall.

At Nerinx, we want to make a quality, college-prep education accessible to as many families as possible. Families seeking need-based tuition assistance are encouraged to complete a financial aid application through FACTS, our secure financial aid platform. Award amounts are based on a review of family income, assets, liabilities, and other factors. For details and step-by-step instructions on how to apply, visit our Tuition and Financial Aid page.
