Application Process
Thank you for exploring Tilton School and submitting an application!
We look forward to welcoming new students and strive to make the admissions process as seamless as possible. Tilton is excited to now offer students and families the choice between Early Action and Regular Decision application timelines. If Tilton is at the top of your list, you can choose us early through our Early Action application.
Early Action applications are not binding. If you are admitted during this phase, you are not required to enroll. This timeline simply gives you more time to evaluate your options and confirm that Tilton School is the best choice for you.
Of course, by applying early, we hope you are choosing Tilton!
No matter which option you choose, you’ll also need to schedule an interview which can be done when you visit campus or via Zoom. Please email us at admissions@tiltonschool.org to find a time that works for you!
