Application, Fees, & Payments

Apply  Early!

apppic_newEach student is assigned a class registration number based on the date his/her application package arrives in the School office. Students will register for classes in numerical order. Applying early and receiving a low registration number increases the chance of getting into desired classes. Many ADF classes fill to capacity and have a waiting list.
