Please contact Taylor Boyd to schedule a visit.

The Record Release Form should be given directly to your son's current school. It authorizes his current school to send us his records, which are necessary to complete the application process.

The Common Referral Form should be given to your son's current school along with the Release Form. Your son's school will give this form to his teacher(s) to fill out and return to Gilman. Generally, this form will be returned with your son's records. This form is a necessary part of the process.

Gilman retains an applicant's information in the strictest confidence, as defined in the Association of Independent Maryland and DC Schools (AIMS) Policy Statement on Confidentiality of Student Recommendations.

After you submit your son's application, the Admissions Office will be in touch to schedule your parent interview to learn more about your family.

Parents are not required to stay during assessment; however, should you wish to do so, "another look" tours will be available (tours are also part of the Visiting Day program).

Applicants for grades two through five visit Gilman on Saturday, January 5, 2019. You will be prompted to register for this testing date when you complete the online application in the Admissions Portal. The boys are given standardized achievement and ability tests, are evaluated informally by teachers, and are asked to complete a writing sample. Qualified applicants who cannot be accepted initially due to the limited number of spaces will be placed in a wait pool. 

The Admissions Committee will review all applications and make decisions during the month of February. You will learn our decision on February 21, 2019, and those accepted will have until March 8, 2019, to return the enrollment contract and deposit.

Families who accept our offer of admission will need to complete an enrollment contract in the Admission Portal for each accepted student. Enrollment contracts are due March 8, 2019.
