Navigating the Application Process at Delmarva Christian Schools

Gathering Information: The first step in exploring DCS is to gather information about our school. You can connect with our enrollment team to schedule a tour, participate in our Shadow Day program (available for high school students), or request printed information. These opportunities allow you to experience firsthand the vibrant community and educational atmosphere at DCS.

Applying to DCS: Once you've gathered initial information and feel drawn to DCS, the next step is to complete the application process. The application for the upcoming school year typically begins in November so if you are reading this in March that means a few months of applications have passed and many families have already interviewed. From November to December, we waive the application fee and from January to March 31 the application fee is reduced. After March 31 the new student application fee is $100. As part of the application, you'll be required to submit various documents such as behavior records, report cards, test scores, birth certificates, and transcripts. This information helps us understand your child's academic background and ensures a smooth transition into our school community.

Interview Process: Upon receiving all application forms and required documents, a member of our enrollment team will reach out to schedule an in-person interview at DCS. The interview is an essential step in the application process and provides an opportunity for open dialogue between the school and the family. It is conversational in nature, but we ask questions to help gauge an array of factors. Following the interview, the enrollment team will notify the family of the enrollment decision. We typically notify acceptances in March.
