The Admissions Process

The admissions process described below is for applicants to the Garden School (Kinder) Grammar School (1st - 6th), Logic School (7th - 9th), and Rhetoric School (10th -12th). We have created a thorough admissions process in an attempt not to be exclusive but to be inclusive of families who strongly desire a classical Christian education. Berean Christian Academy is a school committed to academic excellence and spiritual development. Instilling in students a love of learning and providing an orderly, nurturing atmosphere are our priorities. We desire to create a community where grace and respect override differences and a unity of the Holy Spirit prevails.

  1. View Discover Berean to learn more about BCA. Then attend our one of our prospective parent events. Campus tours and event dates can be found here

  2. Complete required reading and informational list:

  • An Introduction to Classical Education by Christopher Perrin

  • Our Approach to Classical Education

  • Applying 7th - 12th grade students and parents listen to podcast, "So Your Parents Are Thinking of Sending You to a Classical Christian School" Hear Joshua Gibbs read a pamphlet intended to inform upper school students on the beliefs, habits, and goals of a classical Christian school. Listen on Spotify or Apple.

3. Submit an application for admissions through the website which includes:

  • K-4th grade $210 application and assessment fee (non-refundable) 

  • 5th-12th grade $170 application fee and ISEE assessment fee (non-refundable) 

  • Recommendations and Reference Forms

  • Completed Records Release Form

  • Applicant’s Birth Certificate

  • Immunization Records

  • Student photo

  • Student Questionnaire for 7th grade and higher

4. Once BCA has received the completed application with all required documentation the admissions         

    coordinator will contact you to schedule the appropriate assessment testing and shadow day.

  • 1st-12th grade applicants will be scheduled for an on campus student shadow day.

  • K-4th grade applicants will complete an on campus assessment. 

  • 5th-12th grade applicants must schedule and complete the ISEE assessment. Scores should be submitted directly to BCA using our unique ERB number: 571498. Instructions will be emailed to you once your application is submitted. The ISEE assessment fee is in addition to the application fee and is paid directly to ERB Learning. â€‹

5. The final step of the application process is a parent interview. The parent interview is scheduled with the

    admissions team after successful completion of the assessment and shadow day. The purpose of this interview

    is for discussing the compatibility of the student's and family's goals with the school's methods and

    philosophy. This is an integral part of the admissions process. 

6. After careful consideration and prayer by our admissions committee, all families will receive notification of        

   admission status. 

 

NOTE: BCA keeps an active waiting pool, and applicants are evaluated as space is available. If the grade for which you have applied becomes full your application may be placed into our waiting pool for that grade. If a place becomes available in a previously closed grade, all applicants in the wait pool will be considered together.
