Admissions Process

Greater Grace Christian Academy is a church-based private Christian school. Our primary mission is to serve the families of Greater Grace Church in Baltimore. Secondarily we open our doors to the families of our neighboring churches who desire Christian education. Please note that church attendance is a pre-requisite for enrollment: Parents or students who cannot document regular church attendance will not be considered candidates for admissions.

In general, students who wish to apply for admission must have at least a 'B' average, and any standardized tests scores should all range above-average. Students with any type of learning disabilities are considered on a case-by-case basis.

How to Apply

The school registrar, Mr. Nathan McFarland, will walk you through each step of the enrollment process. Please note that GGCA does not charge an application fee unless a lack of academic background information requires testing. Once a student has been accepted, a non-refundable registration fee of $100.00 will reserve their seat in the class.

Application: Please complete and submit the on-line application. (See below). You may also obtain a copy of this form by stopping by our office. In order to complete your application, please submit a copy of the last two (2) years of report cards and results from any standardized testing. When applicable, include a student’s high school transcript and/or results from any psycho-educational testing. Once we have this documentation, we will contact you to set up a formal interview.

Interview: The interview with the Admissions Committee will discuss academic achievement and behavioral expectations, and will ascertain whether the student is a potential candidate for admission. The Admissions Committee will typically make an acceptance decision within 24 hours of the interview.

Wait-listing: With several grades at or near capacity, we may need to place your student on a waiting list until currently enrolled families re-register in the late spring. We will do our best to guarantee registration as soon as possible.

Registration: All application forms are available on-line or in the school office. Registration for new students is by appointment: once the Registrar has verified that all required forms are completed we will arrange a meeting with the Finance Office to set up a payment plan and complete the registration process.
