Admissions Process
The admissions process at Morgan Park Academy is an opportunity for parents and students to learn more about the Academy and its unique educational environment, as well as an opportunity for us to learn more about the candidate and his or her background, interests, and abilities. Like you, we are seeking a good fit between the student and the school.
