What tests are required for Drew School’s admissions?

Drew School follows a test-blind admissions policy, meaning standardized test scores are neither required nor considered in the application process. Since 2020, the school has focused on a holistic review, evaluating students based on their academic and personal profiles rather than numerical scores.

For 9th Grade Entry, admissions decisions are based on academic transcripts, teacher recommendations, personal essays, extracurricular involvement, and interviews.

For 10th Grade Entry (transfer students), applicants are assessed on their current high school performance, course rigor, and how well their academic goals align with Drew’s curriculum.

For 11th and 12th Grade Entry, which have limited openings, the admissions process is highly selective, placing emphasis on strong academic records, personal essays, and teacher recommendations.

At all grade levels, academic readiness is determined through transcripts, recommendation forms, and interview evaluations, without the consideration of standardized test scores.
