In the Members Schools section of this site, we offer descriptions of 34 Chicago-area independent schools. Reading these descriptions with an idea of the learning needs of your child and your family’s expectations of a school is a good way to begin your search for a school. The next step is to contact schools that interest you and ask for a brochure. After you have read the brochures, you will probably want to visit. To do this, call the admissions office at the schools to make arrangements. If both parents are able to visit the schools, they will be able to compare impressions and make a more complete decision. Once you have a better idea of the schools, you probably will want to arrange visits with your child in accordance with the procedures at a given school. Schools have admissions forms that request information about children’s interests and their previous school experiences. Schools may seek a recommendation from a teacher, as well, if the child is already enrolled in school. Many schools also administer entrance examinations and require a school visit as part of the admissions process. In most cases, a committee will review your child’s application and make a decision. The admissions director will call or write to inform you of the decision. Just as parents are looking for a good school match for their child, schools want to do their best to ensure an appropriate match. Tuition options Financial Aid
