Admissions

We invite you and your family to learn more about USL!

Our admissions process allows us to meet families, like yours, with curious and motivated students who would benefit from a University School education and be a welcome addition to our community. We’ll get to know each other through the admissions process, which includes a tour of the school, shadow days, and possibly joining us for one of our LOTCs or special events.
