JOIN US FOR OPEN HOUSE
High school is a time of great growth and discovery. As parents, we want the best for our daughters. Since 1962, families have chosen Our Lady of Mercy Academy (OLMA) because of the exceptional academics we offer. OLMA also provides countless leadership opportunities, a competitive athletics program and service learning in a small, supportive, faith-based environment that we call the Sisterhood.

We invite you to experience all that OLMA has to offer at our upcoming Open House -- Thursday, November 9, from 8:30 AM -- 12:30 PM. We will fill you in on what's new, show off our beautiful school -- including our brand new, state-of-the-art MAC Lab and Fitness Center. You will meet and hear from students, faculty and staff -- and see first hand the unique ways that we prepare our students to take control of their destiny and fulfill their dreams.

Ready to Apply?
Congratulations on your decision to apply for admission to Our Lady of Mercy Academy.

Please follow the steps outlined below:

Step One: Set up a Shadow Day
The best way to experience OLMA is to spend a day shadowing an existing student.

You’ll be part of life at the Academy that day -- and we’ll even treat you to lunch. To schedule a Shadow Day, call (856) 697-2008, ext. 140, or register online here .

Step Two: Fill out an application
This is all done online via our website. Simply fill in the information and “submit” it
when complete. In addition to the application, you will also need to provide two letters
of recommendation. If you provide email addresses for your English and Math teachers, we will request those for you. You will also need to provide copies of your academic scores for grades 6-8.



Step Three: Take the Entrance Exam
All applicants are required to sit for OLMA’s entrance exam. In addition to providing a
current assessment of a student’s overall academic acumen, exam results will be used to
select academic scholarship recipients, as well as to place incoming students in
appropriate level courses.

There are four entrance exam dates: Saturday, November 18, 2017; Saturday,
December 9, 2017; Saturday, January 20, 2018; and Saturday, March 24, 2018
(pending availability of seats). All testing will take place from 9-11 AM at OLMA.

After March 24, entrance exams will be by appointment only (pending availability). The e arly admissions application deadline is December 1, 2017 (early applicants must test on one of the first two dates). Applicants who wish to be considered for an academic scholarship must take the entrance exam by January 20, 2018.


Step Four: Set up an interview
We like to get to know our applicants! One of the ways we do this is via a brief interview
with our Head of School, Dean of Academics and Leadership or Admissions Director.
Please call (856) 697-2008, ext. 140 to schedule your interview.
