OR

2. Complete your application using the Standard Application Online (SAO).

1. Transcripts - Upload transcripts directly through your Linden Hall account. This should include a progress report from the current school year and final report cards from the previous two school years.


2. Scores - Linden Hall is pleased to offer a test-flexible policy beginning Fall 2021. Please click here to review your options. If you elect to send the SSAT, please send your scores directly to Linden Hall. Linden Hall's SSAT score code is 4650. Remember, students educated outside the US are asked only for English proficiency testing, nothing more!


3. Teacher Recommendations - Recommendation forms can be electronically sent to teachers and administrators from your Linden Hall account. Forms should be sent to your current English teacher, current math teacher, and a school official who can comment on your attendance and citizenship (e.g., guidance counselor, assistant principal, registrar).


4. English Proficiency Testing - If you have been educated outside of the US or Canada at any point in the last 5 years*, you are likely required to submit English proficiency test scores as your only test scores. This will satisfy your Standardized Testing Requirement. We accept both the TOEFL and Duolingo tests. Our TOEFL Institution Code is 0435. For students needing support with English, Linden Hall offers an English as a Second Language (ESL) program to students in grades 9-11 for an extra cost. ESL support may be available for grades 6-8, please email us for details. 
   *If you have studied outside the US/Canada in the last 5 years but feel you should not submit English Proficiency Testing, please contact us to discuss your situation.


5. Interview - Your interview will be a chance for an admission counselor to learn more about you and to assess your fit in the Linden Hall program. All admission interviews are conducted virtually over Zoom. Please schedule your interview through your Linden Hall account or our Calendly page.


6. Optional Items of Support - Linden Hall invites additional information that may enhance your application. This may include evaluations for IEPs and 504 plans, additional test scores, music recordings, a short art portfolio, a newspaper clipping, unusually strong athletic results, or a description of a particularly noteworthy accomplishment or project. Some items may be considered for a merit scholarship. Please note that only about 10% of our applicants submit additional materials, so you are not at any disadvantage in the admission process if you do not submit items beyond the application requirements. 

We have a rolling admissions process for new students, which means that we accept applications and release decisions on a rolling basis. We continue to accept applications after traditional deadlines in the Winter as space allows. However, for the best chance at admission and a strong financial package, we recommend our Priority Admission pool. All of our large need-based packages, as well as our top merit scholarships, are awarded to Priority Admission applicants. If you miss the Priority Admission deadline and are seeking significant financial support, please contact us prior to applying to ask about our largest available package.

The following deadlines apply to candidates seeking Fall enrollment; please see below for Midyear enrollment dates. The Linden Hall application becomes available each year in early September.

Linden Hall also accepts Midyear (January) enrollments on a space-available basis. Limited need-based financial aid may be available, please call to inquire. Midyear candidates apply in the Fall, and decisions are released on a rolling basis beginning in October.

Midyear Enrollment Important Dates:

• Applications accepted from late August through late November; late applicants considered on a space-available basis
• For the best chance at admission, apply by November 1
• Supporting documents, including financial aid applications, should be received by November 15
• Linden Hall’s Winter Break begins December 17; Spring semester begins January 10
