How to Apply
We are committed to a holistic review of each student who applies to Peddie; all components of the application are equally important.
Applying to Peddie consists of three steps: the interview, standardized testing and the application. Each piece of the process helps us see the many facets that make you the person you are. Our admission staff is ready to assist you along the way; please contact us at 609-944-7501 or admission@peddie.org at any time.
Interview
The interview is required and provides an opportunity for an admission officer to get to know more about you. All applicants must complete an inquiry form before scheduling an interview.
Learn how to prepare for your interview.
Interview slots are available Monday through Saturday each week.
To schedule your interview, contact our office by phone or email at admission@peddie.org.
International Applicants
Interviews can be scheduled by contacting our International Student Coordinator at internationalcoordinator@peddie.org. Applicants from mainland China are required to interview with a representative from Vericant before scheduling an interview at The Peddie School. Please contact Vericant to make your appointment.
A note about your application and the COVID-19 pandemic:
If your application or testing process has been impacted in any way by the global pandemic, we are here to help. Please contact the Admission Office at 609-944-7501 or admission@peddie.org.
Test
Standardized testing is required and test scores will be considered as part of the holistic review of your application. We accept the SSAT or the ISEE.
All parts of the application are reviewed when determining whether a student is a strong fit for our rigorous academic curriculum and rich, multi-faceted programs and community.
Test scores do not impact our consideration of need-based financial assistance.
