Orme is a place where you can meet people from all over the world and create a bond with those people.  It gives you a unique experience that can't be found anywhere else.  Orme changed my life and it will always be my home! Megan Lee '08

The Orme School seeks students who want opportunities available to them while they prepare for college. Orme expects students to contribute to the School community and to have an understanding of the importance of integrity and personal responsibility as they relate to community living. Admission to Orme is based upon personal character, scholarship, and commitment.

Admissions Process

1. Schedule a visit to campus.  Neither words nor pictures can adequately convey what the Orme School is all about.  Therefore, it is important that each prospective student visit the School.  To arrange an appointment, call the Admission Office at 928-632-7601. Before visiting, we require parts I and II of the application be mailed or faxed to us.
2. Return parts I and II of the Application, the $50 application fee, and the signed Application Agreement .
3. Forward transcripts (photocopies and faxes are acceptable), and test results from present school. The school must send these, not the applicant. Our fax number is 928-632-7605.
4. English Teacher Recommendation, Math Teacher Recommendation, Special Interest Recommendation, and Principal/Head/Counselor Recommendation must be sent to us directly from each above individual. 
5. If interested in financial aid, please submit a request.

An Orme School Visit - What To Prepare For:

Visiting an independent boarding school is a serious decision. At Orme, we believe your visit is an important part of the admissions process and look forward to getting to know you. Here are a few important points to understand and keep in mind as you make your plans to visit our campus.

1. Call the Admissions Office and schedule a date and time to visit campus. Complete Parts I and II of the Application for Admission and mail or fax before your arrival.

A visit to The Orme School consists of a student-led tour (if students are available) and an interview with a member of the admissions staff. Attending a class and lunch are optional. Visits last one to three hours, depending on how much time you would like to spend in addition to the tour and interview.
3. The Orme School class day dress code consists of a collared shirt (long or short sleeves) and a neat, appropriate appearance.
4. If interested in scheduling an additional appointment with any member of the Orme faculty or staff, please let us know ahead of time so we may set that up for you.
