Admissions Process at Elan School

Elan School accepts referrals from parents/legal guardians, school districts, government agencies, therapists, educational consultants, psychologists, psychiatrists, and anyone with a personal or professional interest in the student.  Elan's Admissions Staff can assist you with determining appropriateness of your child.

The Elan School Admissions Department must have the following information in order to consider a student:

•  Current Psychological Evaluation

•  Educational Records

•  Application for Admission

•  Discharge Summaries if previously placed

•  Report Cards (7th and 8th Grade)

•  Transcripts (9th to Present Grade)

Questions of appropriateness are resolved via phone calls; occasionally an interview is required. If Elan's criteria are met, the referral source is notified, first by phone, and then in writing; funding is verified (if privately placed, Elan's Financial Statement is required); and details of admission are finalized.

In order to maximize understanding of the Elan School program, parents receive a comprehensive tour before admission.   The tour includes a visit through one of the houses, escorted by an Elan student who will explain the details of the program and answer any questions you may have.   You will also meet with representatives from our Clinical Department, Medical, Education and Admissions.  

By the date of admission, school transcripts, birth certificate, immunization records, medical authorizations, health insurance information, and applicable legal documents (i.e. court order or divorce decree pertaining to custody and visitation) are required.

Please note that interviews, tours of the school's campus and admissions are conducted weekdays, excluding legal holidays, by appointment only.  

If you are interested in learning more about our program at Elan or would like an application and brochure packet sent to you, please contact the Elan School Admissions Department.
