    Personal Recommendation ▸
    (from a current counselor, principal, coach, etc.)

  • ADMISSIONS INTERVIEW

    A personal interview with an Admissions Officer is an essential component of Wasatch Academy's admissions application. During the interview, students will have the opportunity to share information about their current school, academic and extra-curricular interests, anything that helps us understand what they love to do, and their desire to attend boarding school. Parents and guardians will have the opportunity to meet with the Admissions Officer as well.

    Families should plan to spend about three hours on campus for the campus tour and interview.

    SCHEDULE A VISIT

    Visits are typically scheduled during the academic year on Monday through Friday. Although we encourage you to visit when school is in session, we are happy to accommodate families year-round.

    While we would like to meet you in person, for international students or other applicants unable to make it to campus, please contact the Admissions Office to set up a phone or online interview. An application and current grades (if at all possible) should be on file before arranging an interview.

    Please, call the Admissions Office to set up an appointment:
    435-462-1400 or 800-634-4690.

    BEFORE YOU ARRIVE

    To assist us in our planning and to make your visit more informative, we encourage (but do not require) students to submit any completed pieces of the application before coming to campus.
