    We are excited you have decided to apply to Webb Junior Scholars. Our priority deadline is March 15th. We will begin reviewing applications after the priority deadline and you will receive your admission decision shortly after that date. Following this deadline, applications will be accepted on a rolling basis.

    To apply, please fill out the online application. Once you have submitted your application, you have access to the online portal where you will be prompted to upload a transcript or school report and a teacher recommendation. The recommendation form will be available in the online CampInTouch portal.

    As we continue to receive more qualified international applicants, and since Junior Scholars is an academic program that requires a high level of English proficiency, we ask our international applicants to complete a language screen through Duolingo or Toefl/Toefl Junior. Students who have attended at least one year at a school where the primary language of instruction is English are exempt.
