Step 1.
Parents/Legal Guardian(s) will complete an online application for the student and pay the $100 application fee upon submission, with the remaining amount due prior to scheduling the interview (view the I-20 international student fees in the third tab of the tuition page).
If you need to email documents, please email them to Jody Speck. Please include with the application:
- Copy of birth certificate/family registry (translated)
- Completed Immunization Form
- Copy of their previous year’s report card
- High school transcript (if applicable)
- English equivalency test results
- Bank statement (translated)
- Copy of any current I-20 (if a transfer student)
- Copy of the student’s passport and VISA
If the student will not be living with a parent, then we require legal custodianship/guardianship documentation (see sample documentation forms here). CPCS requires that the student reside with the Legal Guardian(s) and that the Legal Guardian(s) sign all required application and financial paperwork.
Step 2.
Once we have received a completed application packet, a formal family interview will be scheduled, requiring the attendance of the student and their parents, the Legal Guardian(s), and an interpreter if necessary.
Step 3.
When a student is accepted, all tuition for the school year must be paid and is non-refundable, along with the New Family fee and Materials fee. Early payment discounts do not apply. When the tuition and all fees have cleared the School Finance Office, the School will be in a position to issue an I-20.
Parents must also arrange for students to have adequate medical insurance in place for their students while living in the United States.
Please Note: If parents and students determine that a change in guardianship is necessary at any time, the parents must provide a 30 day written notice prior to the change and schedule an interview with the new guardian, the campus administrator and the international director.
Notice of change to US residential address and phone contact information must be submitted to CPCS within 10 days of the change in order to comply with Immigration and Naturalization Service.
