How to Enroll

Here you can review our six step process for applying. You may begin the process with our convenient online application form.

Welcome to The George Washington University Online High School admission process. We’re delighted you’re interested in joining our school community. GWUOHS looks for students who are motivated, intellectually curious, and seeking a first-rate education.

Acceptance to our school is selective, and the quality and effort you put into your application is important. For instance, we read student essays with a sympathetic yet critical eye, and high expectations.

While we enroll students twice per year, for Fall and Spring semesters, we review applications year-round. Since space is limited, we urge you to apply early and assure your seat for the coming term.

Step 1: Enrolling full-time or purchasing individual AP course, all applicants must complete the online application form and send official school transcripts to The George Washington University Online High School.

Step 2: Within 24 hours of completing the application, an enrollment coordinator will call you to discuss your candidacy and walk you through the enrollment process.

Step 3: Full-time students only can download the admissions package here. The admissions package contains documents required to complete the process, including student essays, transcript request forms, and parent recommendation forms.

Step 4: Full-time students only should submit the $150 application fee (non-refundable).

Step 5: To learn more about GWUOHS policies and being a student at GWUOHS, download the Student/Parent Handbook.
