We take kids seriously.

At Greene Hill School we believe in and imagine the best for each child and promote learning through an interdisciplinary curriculum, appreciation of critical thinking and open-ended investigation of our neighborhood and beyond. Founded with the understanding that community is the backbone of society, Greene Hill School guides children to become dedicated members of a diverse, democratic society.

Our alumni report that GHS is where they discovered their passions, developed strong academic skills that prepared them for high school, found community, and learned that their voices are important.

Greene Hill School - How to Apply

Application and Fee

Applications for the 2026-27 school year will open on August 28, 2025.

Applications for admission to both Lower and Middle School can be found on Ravenna, an admissions website used by many independent schools. Locate “Greene Hill School” under New York Area schools to create an account and begin the application process.

If the $75 fee presents a hardship for your family, please contact admissions@greenehillschool.org to obtain a fee waiver.

School Tours

Beginning in September, we will be hosting weekly tours of our Lower School, and bi-weekly tours of our Middle School. Once applications open, you will be able to see the tour dates and self-register via Ravenna.

Facts Managment

To participate in our sliding scale tuition, please fill out an application with FACTS Management, a financial assessment organization that will recommend a tuition tier based on your application with them. Please note that we are unable to release admissions decisions until your Facts application has been completed and processed, which may take up to 3 weeks. Families able to pay tier 7 tuition need not fill out a Facts Management application. 

Child Visit and Parent Interview

Once we have received you application and supplemental materials, we will contact you to schedule a child visit. Child visits take place November through January. After the child visit is complete, you will be able to register for a parent meeting, the final step of the applications process.

Decisions

Families are contacted about decisions in accordance with the Independent School Admission Association of Greater New York (ISAAGNY) guidelines for admissions.
