Application Process
St. Nicholas is enthusiastic to introduce its program to parents who are eager to learn about our school. Therefore, the process for prospective parents is simple and friendly.
The admission office welcomes inquiries at any time during the year. For families interested in enrolling for the following school year, fall is the ideal time to visit the campus and submit an application.
