When should I start preparing for Drew School admissions?

You should start preparing for Drew School admissions at least a year before you apply to avoid last-minute stress. In spring and summer before 8th grade, begin researching the school, attending open houses, and exploring extracurricular activities. In early fall, start working on your personal statement and ask teachers for recommendations. By late fall and early winter, submit your application, prepare for interviews, and complete any required testing. Admissions decisions are released in early March, and if you’re accepted, you must confirm enrollment by early April. Preparing early helps you create a strong application and increases your chances of getting in. Don’t wait until the last minute!
