• Submit your completed application by November 12, 2010.

• Qualified students will be granted an interview. An interview is mandatory for acceptance. No interviews will be granted until a candidate's file is complete. A completed file consists of the application, test score results, official transcript, and recommendation.

Visitation Days

Current eighth graders are welcomed and strongly recommended (but not required) to spend a day at Villa Joseph Marie High School shadowing a current freshman. Appointments can be set up for these visits by calling the Admissions Office. Visitation days only occur from mid-September through mid-November, for 8th graders only. 

This is a wonderful opportunity to explore Villa and experience all that the school has to offer.  Eighth graders are welcomed to the school in the morning by their "buddies" for the day and guided through a full school day.  This is truly the best way to understand the family atmosphere that makes Villa the special place it is.
