The following steps outline the typical admission process. All admissions events and requirements are subject to change.
DAY AT HNA
Spend a 'Day at HNA'! Students in the 8th grade, and potential transfer students, are invited to spend a Day at HNA with a current student as host. We will provide $15 for lunch/break in the cafe. Visitors are welcome from the end of September through early January, dependent on the HNA schedule. Contact admissions@holynames-sea.org to schedule.
Late applications will be considered on a space-available basis. Please contact the Admissions Office at (206)720-7805 or admissions@holynames-sea.org.
HNA administers the HSPT exam to all prospective 9th/10th graders. This is one of several components used to determine admission status, placement, and scholarship awards. Exams were held in December. While applicants may test at any school who administers the HSPT, we would love to have you test on our campus! See FAQs for more exam information.

Official transcript/permanent record
Standardized test scores from current/previous years
The admissions process for transfer students is the same as for incoming 9th-grade students (see above). It is recommended that applicants for the 10th grade submit standardized test scores (from within the last two years) and take the HNA Scholarship/ Placement Exam. Applicants for the 11th grade are not required to take the exam but are encouraged to include their most recent standardized exam scores with their application.
