How To Apply

Important Information for the 2025-2026 Application Cycle

Westtown School is a member of the Philadelphia Region Independent School Enrollment Consortium (PRISEC).

As part of our shared commitment to a fair and transparent admissions process for families exploring independent schools across the Greater Philadelphia region, schools have agreed upon the following common admission process dates:

• Earliest Application Deadline: December 1
• Earliest Notification Date: January 10 
• Earliest Commitment Deadline: February 15

Have you been asked to reply to an offer of enrollment or scholarship that does not align with these “no earlier than” process dates? Does a personal family circumstance require an exception to the above?

Here are the next steps:

1. Call the school that is asking you to reply earlier than the agreed-upon dates above and ask for an extension on your reply to their offer.
2. If no extension is granted, call the other school(s) to which you have applied and ask for an exception and expedited review and/or decision.
