Step 3

Step 4

Have an interview.

Upon receipt of the required forms, our admissions office will contact you to schedule the applicant and parent interviews. Students applying for Grades 1-5 will be assessed through a personal interview which will be held virtually.

Step 5

Admission testing (Grade 5 only)

Testing is optional for all grades this year.

If a student will be registering for admission testing, indicate Léman Manhattan Preparatory School as a recipient of the test scores. Applicants for grade 5 may take either the ISEE administered by the Educational Records Bureau (ERB) (school code: 336630) or the SSAT (school code: 4572).

Step 6

Send us a video (optional).

In an effort to get to know your child better, we encourage you to send a video of them taking part in something they love such as singing a favorite song, telling a story, or showing us original artwork – anything that you would like to share which will show us what kind of community member they will be. Your video should be up to 90 seconds in length.
