➤ Admission Requirements

Please note that all prospective students must undergo the assessment of fit before enrolling at Eaton Arrowsmith. This assessment of fit consists of an admissions meeting with our admissions specialist, during which time the student’s cognitive profile, current level of abilities (including English language proficiency) and ability to engage in the program are assessed. The assessment of fit may also include a visit to the classroom, during which time the student’s ability to engage is observed.

➤ Necessary Documents

We require report cards, psych-eds, IEPs, etc. to be submitted as part of the admissions process. Formal documentation of a learning disability is not required for enrollment at Eaton Arrowsmith. However, the above documents help the school gain an understanding of each student’s learning profile.

➤ Assessment of Fit

• Meeting with an EA admissions specialist to review the student’s learning profile.
• We will determine if the program is a good fit and, at this time, may offer the student a space in the program for the current or upcoming school year (depending on space).
• Further information may be required before a space is offered.

➤ Classroom Visit or Virtual Tour / Session

We encourage potential and new students to visit our classrooms or do a virtual tour/session. The visit (or virtual session) may be part of the admission process if there are concerns about a student’s ability to engage in the program or simply be a way for the student to get to know some of the teachers and other students before he or she starts.

➤ Required Documents & Payments

• Enrollment documents and initial payments are required to secure a space at EA.

➤ Programming Assessment & First Day

• Students can join EA at any time in the academic year (depending on space). Each student’s program is unique, so no catch-up is required.
• The Arrowsmith Programming Assessment is administered only after a student is enrolled at Eaton Arrowsmith and will determine which exercises and levels a student will work on first.
