Our Admission Process

Appropriate placement for each applicant is Fairhill’s first concern. Admission is based on information gathered from review of psycho-educational testing and academic records, followed by personal interviews with parents and the student.

Fairhill is an independent non-sectarian, co-educational institution open to qualified candidates regardless of race, color, sex, age, ethnicity, national origin, religion, or disability. The Fairhill family is a diverse group of individuals dedicated to a common goal: providing a supportive atmosphere where learning different students have the opportunity to thrive.
