One counselor at each of the schools has been designated as the contact person for applicants. For applicants attending private schools, applicant forms and materials are available from the Office of Admissions at Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology. All applicant materials must be returned to the designated counselor or to the Office of Admissions by November 1, 2000. There are no exceptions to this deadline. All applicants must take the admissions examination.
Applicants indicate their choice of a test center on the application form.
A testing center verification letter will be mailed to the student's home prior to the testing date. A make-up testing date will be scheduled for applicants with legitimate medical reasons for missing the regular test date. Applicants who require testing accommodations due to identified disabilies or applicants who require an alternate test date due to religious reasons should call the Office of Admissions prior to the application deadline. Selection decissions will be postmarked on April 2, 2001.
