Castilleja’s earliest entry point for enrollment is in 6th grade, with approximately 60 spaces available. We also welcome applicants to grades 7, 8, 9, 10, 和11, but we want families to be aware that admission in these grades is limited and contingent upon having space available in the class. 

The Committee evaluates several hundred applications for 6th grade and over one hundred applications for 9th grade and through the process identifies girls who truly love learning.

Successful applicants are intellectually curious, actively engaged and strong members of their school community. We seek girls who embody and appreciate our core values, 5个c——良心, 礼貌, 字符, 勇气和仁爱, and who also appreciate these values in their classmates.

是的! Castilleja welcomes international students to apply for admission. All applicants must go through the same admission process and must be fluent (oral and written) in English.

Upon admission to Castilleja, we are able to offer student visas to international students. It is expected that all Castilleja students will live with immediate family members in the Bay Area.

Castilleja is "test-blind" and does not require standardized admission tests. Further, if we receive test results, we will not add them to applicants’ files. The admission committee will continue to rely on a holistic approach to our process, considering the countless ways that applicants can contribute to and thrive within our learning community.

No, tuition assistance will not impact admission decisions. 入学 decisions are made independently of tuition assistance applications and decisions.

Castilleja is committed to enrolling a diverse student body and encourages families to apply for admission and tuition assistance. One in five of our families receive tuition assistance awards ranging from $3,000–$59,100.
