Admissions & Tuition
The Cathedral Preschool does not discriminate in enrollment on the basis of race, color, creed, or national or ethnic origin. Please note that, although the Cathedral Preschool and the Cathedral of St. Philip have had a longstanding, mutually beneficial relationship, the Cathedral Preschool is a separate entity from the Cathedral of St. Philip. As such, admissions decisions are the sole responsibility of the Cathedral Preschool. We regret that, due to our size and space limitations, we are unable to accept all church members who apply.
Application forms for the 2012-2013 school year may be downloaded from the website.
Tours
Tours of the Preschool were given during the month of October and the first two weeks of November. No further tours are available at this time. Please call the Preschool office (404.237.8777) with questions or for information about the school.

How do I obtain a application form?
You may call the preschool office and request a form to be sent to you, download a form from the website, or pick one up in the preschool office.
Is there a charge for applying?
Yes. A $25 non-refundable fee must be sent with your application. If you recieve a letter saying you have been offered a space, at that time you will send a $100 non-refundable deposit to secure a space.
When can I apply?
Registration information for the 2012-2013 school year for new students will be available on a rolling basis from October 1, 2011 until the application return date Tuesday, November 15, 2011.
How do I turn in my application on November 15?
All registration is handled by mail only. Registration for new students begins on November 15, 2011. Your letter must have a post office cancellation stamp. Your information may not be mailed before the 15th - if it is postmarked before the 15th, it will be returned to you.
How does the school process the application information?
We wait for 10 days to assure that all letters mailed on the 10th have been received. Then we begin opening and placing each letter in the correct category to create our wait list. All letters postmarked November 15 are considered equal. If your letter is postmarked after the 15th, it will be opened after all letters postmarked on the 15th.
When and how will I hear about my status?
You will recieve a letter notifying you of your status no later than the first week of February. At that time you will have 10 days to respond.
What if I am not offered a space?
Your child’s name will remain on our wait list for the remainder of the year unless you notify us to remove their name. If an opening occurs during that time, we go to the wait list in the order it was originally created.
Will my name remain on the list for the following year?
No. You must submit a new application each year.
