Application Process

Note that some grade levels require specific documents to be completed. For a detailed listing of the admission process, please see our "Admission Guides" either by requesting an application packet, or by downloading them from our admissions forms page.

                     

Application

All students interested in entering Hanalani Schools must complete an Application for Admission (HA-01). Depending on the age of the student, additional forms and reference are required before the application will be considered. A copy of the student's birth certificate, along with a $75 application fee must also be submitted. Get started now by Applying Online, downloading the application and reference forms from our Forms Download page - OR - Request an Admissions Packet be mailed to you.

                     

Testing

Testing is only one "piece" of the application puzzle. All K4 - 12th grade applicants must complete one of the following tests:

  • K3 applicants do not require an admissions test.
  • K4 - 6th grade applicants, our Admissions Office will contact you to schedule an on campus test for your child.
  • 7th - 12th grade applicants are required to submit scores from the Secondary School Admission Test (SSAT) - please visit www.ssat.org to register for the exam. Use Code 3685.
  • 12th grade applicants should submit copies of their scores on the SAT college entrance examination.
 

Interview

The final step in the application process is the interview. The
interview is not automatic but based on the Admissions staff's
review of all supporting application documents (i.e. grades,
reference, test, etc.).

  • A K3 applicant, along with at least one parent, will attend a
    personal interview with either our Early Childhood Director
    or K3 lead teacher.
  • After review of the K4 – 12th grade applicants file, the
    Admissions staff will make a recommendation of whether
    an applicant will move onto the interview or not.
  • To be considered for acceptance, all applicants must be
    recommended for an interview.
 
                   

Enrollment

Our Admissions Committee will review all of the student's information, scores, and interview. If the student is identified as one who will profit from enrollment at Hanalani Schools, an acceptance offer will be sent to the parents. A $500 deposit and Student Enrollment Contract (HA-19) must be submitted to enroll. Tuition payment options and billing account information is also setup during this time.

                     

Attendance

Once a student is officially enrolled, the Admissions Office will mail a New School Year Packet.  This packet will include a few additional forms you will need to complete and submit to the Admissions prior to beginning school.  It will also include important dates that will help you and your child as you prepare for the transition to Hanalani Schools.  You will also want to visit the campus store to purchase uniforms and supplies for the coming year.
