Admissions
Participating in a cooperative preschool is incredibly fun and rewarding for both parents and children, but it also requires a certain amount of time, commitment, and accountability.
We're passionate about running our school together, and we'd love to have you join us!
To decide if Dulin is right for your family, first view the virtual tour, open house presentation, and the Cooperative Model page. Then follow the steps below!
If you have any questions, please contact our Admissions Chair!
1.
Submit Your Application
Submit your application and non-refundable application fee.
If you apply between December 15th and January 31st, you’ll be entered in our randomized lottery.
If you apply after January 31st, first email our Admissions Chair to confirm availability.
2.
Await Lottery Results
On February 7th we will hold a randomized lottery to decide which families are offered a spot and which are placed on our wait-list. You'll be notified of your placement within a week of the lottery.
3.
Accept Your Spot
If you are offered a spot, you must complete and submit the Enrollment Agreement and the non-refundable Enrollment Deposit by the due date to secure your child’s spot.
If you are placed on the waitlist, do not despair! NOVA is a very transient area and we almost always pull from our waitlist before school starts.
4.
Submit your paperwork
Finally, you must complete several registration forms by the due date (communicated via email) in order to attend school. Spots that are not secured will be offered to the waitlist.
