  5. Are students supervised after school?

    For middle school students who do not have a sports practice, rehearsal, or club meeting after school, the After School at Greenhills program (ASG) provides a safe and supervised place every day from 3:30-6:00 p.m. Middle School students and their families can opt to use ASG on an as-needed basis and are billed a small fee through the student’s account on days they stay after school. ASG provides time for homework, a snack break, and quiet socializing.


  6. What is the college counseling program like? Where do Greenhills students end up after high school?

    The college counseling program at Greenhills is designed to support and serve each Greenhills student as he or she seeks challenging and rewarding ways to continue education after graduation. Approaching each student as an individual with distinctive strengths, needs, and aspirations, the college counseling staff also seeks to provide assistance for the student’s parents. We focus on helping each student to find and matriculate at a college or university which will offer appropriate challenge and support, which will be comfortable, and at which the student will grow apace. 100% of graduates attend college.

  7. What is a family's adjusted tuition rate?

    A family adjusted tuition rate would be the total tuition amount deemed available to a family to spend towards a Greenhills education. Families complete a financial analysis application (Clarity Tuition) which Greenhills uses to determine eligibility for the variable tuition program.


  8. What do you do with households with other tuition expenses outside of Greenhills (other private schools, college/university, etc)?

    In these circumstances, we allow as part of our assessment a percentage of the other tuition into our equation to help us determine eligibility.


  9. Are there income thresholds for qualifying for the variable tuition program?

    While we treat every profile as unique, historically, household incomes over $200K (with one child) typically do not meet the qualifying criteria to be in the variable tuition program.


  10. What percentage of the student body participates in the Variable Tuition Program?

    Over 20 percent of the student body receives a variable tuition rate with an average variable tuition rate of $13,000. Forty percent of the families in our Variable Tuition Program earn incomes of $75,000 to $150,000 per year.


QUESTIONS ABOUT APPLYING

  1. How do you make admission decisions? What factors are considered?

    The two main areas used to evaluate an applicant are academic and cultural fit. We have a thorough application process that allows us to gather great information from many materials and activities. Learn more about the application process.


  2. Are standardized tests (such as SSAT) required?

    Yes, Greenhills does require the submission of standardized test results as part of the application process. We view test results in the context of our holistic review process and are by no means the sole factor in admission decisions. High test scores do not guarantee admission and low test scores do not preclude admission. Our goal is to learn as much as we can about the student.
