Admissions Process

To apply, you’ll complete an SSAT profile (our code is 7660) and submit the application fee ($40), student essays, and parent statement.

We also ask for recommendations from your principal or counselor, plus your current math teacher and English teacher. Your current school should send us official transcripts.

You’ll also register for the SSAT exam, which gives us a clear sense of your academic preparation.

Finally, families reach out to admissions@tjs.org to schedule a meeting with our Director of Admissions once the main pieces of the application are in.

When your application is complete, we’ll invite the student to spend a day on campus as a Shadow Day guest. You’ll join a TJ student for classes, enjoy lunch, and get a real feel for daily life here.

We will share admissions decisions on the dates outlined below, and admitted students can secure their place with an enrollment agreement and deposit.

Applications received after these dates are reviewed on a rolling basis as space allows.

Questions? Call us at 314-843-4151 or write to admissions@tjs.org. We look forward to welcoming your family to campus.
