How will my application be evaluated?

All applicants undergo a holistic review meaning we not only look at academic achievement and growth from transcripts and test scores, but also character traits as determined through the application, teacher recommendations, interview, and personal statement. The admission committee also takes into consideration the potential impact a candidate may have on our programs in the arts, athletics, and extracurricular activities.

Which admission test does Oxbridge require and how do we get the results to the school?

Applicants are required to provide Oxbridge Academy with a copy of their most recent standardized testing. Acceptable tests include: SSAT, FSA, ACT, PSAT, SAT, ERB, IOWA, ISEE, etc. FSA scores may be available on the transcript but check with your school. For all other test scores, you should arrange for the testing agency to send your scores directly to Oxbridge.

Should you choose to take the SSAT, the Oxbridge Code is 5620. Dates and registration information can be found at ssat.org. Copies of score reports can also be emailed to admission@oapb.org. Please call the Admission Office at 561.972.9826 if you have questions.

Financial Aid

What if I am divorced or separated?

Oxbridge requires complete financial information from both the custodial and non-custodial parents, including the parents’ W2’s and 1040. This information is collected in an attempt to determine the ability, not the willingness, of each parent to financially support his or her child’s education. If the custodial parent has remarried, Oxbridge will consider the assets of the step-parent, always bearing in mind the obligation of the step-parent to his or her own children.

What will next year’s tuition be?

What kind of award can I expect in following years?

Financial aid awards are subject to review annually, and families must complete new applications each year and provide all required documentation. If a family’s financial circumstances have not changed, the family may assume that their financial aid award will be renewed at the original level of funding. A change in a family’s financial circumstances may result from the loss of a job or job change, a death in the family, or another child entering or graduating from a tuition-charging school. If a family does not apply for or qualify for aid upon admission, it is unlikely that the family will qualify in subsequent years unless there is a significant change in a family’s financial circumstances.
