The Application
The Watkinson application consists of several parts. Follow the links below to visit or download these forms:
* If it is more convenient for your process, you may submit the Standard Application Online instead of Watkinson’s application form. There is no need to submit both. Watkinson’s application cannot be completed on a mobile phone.
We need two confidential teacher recommendations; a math recommendation is required for proper placement.
We ask for two years of records. Please sign and submit to your child’s current school.
Applicants for grades 9–12 must register for and take the SSAT. If you have already taken the PSAT or SAT, these scores may be submitted instead. Our school code is 8050.
Your application is complete when all the following have been submitted:
- Online application
- Student & Parent interviews
- Two years of school records sent to Watkinson
- Two confidential teacher recommendations, including a math recommendation
- SSAT scores submitted (grades 9 and above)
- Financial Aid application (optional)
The priority deadline for the completed application is February 1.
