How to Apply

Please complete the Standard Application Online. There will be a $50 non-refundable application fee for students living in the U.S. and a $125 application fee for students living outside the United States. Please note you will be asked to provide current transcripts and teacher recommendations as part of your application.

We understand that with the developing situation with COVID-19, things may feel uncertain for you and your family, and we want to make sure you have all the information you need. You can experience the magic of Oldfields through a virtual, guided tour with a current student, speak with a member of our admission team, meet program directors of interest, and complete your admission interview—all online.

Schedule a tour to arrange a campus or virtual visit. This is a great opportunity to get the inside scoop during a student-led tour and experience the incredible atmosphere! The tour is followed by a personal interview with a staff member. If your family cannot visit campus, a Skype or phone interview can be substituted. We can't wait to meet you! Please contact us at 443-662-1050 or email us at Admission@OldfieldsSchool.org.
