Before you apply

  • We will consider international students for the 9th and 10th grade only.
  • We require students to have spent a minimum of one year in a school where English is the language of instruction.
  • Charles Wright Academy does not offer any ESL support, therefore strong English skills are required for international applicants.

Immigration Information
If an international applicant is offered admission to Charles Wright Academy, the Admissions Office will require documentation of funds available to pay tuition and other costs. Once they are received, the Admissions Office will issue a form I-20 to the student. It is the student’s responsibility to then apply to a US Consular Office for an F-1 visa. The Admissions Office will provide documentation to assist in the visa application process.
