Admissions

Middle/Upper School Admissions

Gilman School welcomes applications from families with boys entering grades six through twelve for its Middle and Upper Schools.

In making decisions for admissions, the Admissions Committee places great emphasis on past grades, school recommendations, past standardized test scores, and personal interviews, as well as the admissions test results.

Main entry points are the sixth and ninth grades. There are a limited number of spaces in seventh, eighth, and tenth grades. Only under very special conditions are eleventh and twelfth grade admissions considered.
