Applying to NDA

1. Register for Entrance Exam (Grade 9 only)
2. Online application
3. Teacher recommendation forms:
   • Once you begin the FACTS application, you will supply three current teacher email addresses, triggering an automatic email form to the recommending teachers to be returned electronically. Please note one recommendation must be provided by a current math teacher, as indicated on the form.
4. Transcript and standardized test release form:
   • Please complete these forms in the FACTS application process. Once complete, our enrollment team will reach out to your daughter's school on your behalf. Please be prepared to submit the contact information for the party responsible for student transcripts at your daughter's school. 

Applying for Financial Aid:

The education NDA provides is largely funded by tuition. While we make every effort to keep tuition costs within reason, we recognize that some families require financial assistance. We encourage families to apply for financial aid as early as possible in the process. NDA bases its financial assistance on demonstrated financial need and cannot guarantee the availability of funds for late applicants. Families must re-apply for financial aid each year by completing an application with current financial information.

If you wish to be considered for financial aid, you must apply online at through FACTS. Visit our Tuition page for more information.

If you have any questions about the financial aid process you can contact our Business Manager at businessoffice@nda-worc.org.
