Applying to Houghton Academy
Admission to Houghton Academy is based on your completed application. Each application requires supporting documentation. Upon receipt of a completed application, our Admissions Committee reviews each application and makes a decision.
The steps to admission are:
- Visit School (Not required, but very important)
- Obtain an application from the school or from our website.
- Complete and return your parts of the application. The boarding student application fee is $50.
- Request school records from your current school.
- Ask your teachers to complete and return our recommendations. They may elect to write a letter in lieu of using our form.
- Schedule an interview. Interviews are available year-round in Houghton, and in March in several Asian countries. Phone interviews are acceptable when face-to-face interviews are not possible.
*After acceptance but before enrollment, approved candidates should return a completed medical form which requires an exam by a doctor.
