Accept Your Bishop Gorman Decision Online • Navigate to BishopGorman.org and click “Login” in the top right corner. Use the same credentials you created when you submitted your application for admission. • After logging in, click on the student’s name (top left) and navigate to the “Decision” tab. Select your response to our admissions decision for you – we hope you’ll say yes!

Submit Your New Student Fee As Soon As Possible • As a Priority Student, your acceptance means that you can reserve your spot in our Class of 2024 at a discounted rate of $400 until January 31. • Remember that our New Student Fee increases after January 31 ($500) and again after April 4 ($600). • In the same account where you accept your decision, you should also see at the top of the page, that you have a form to review: Your Early Decision Acceptance. Review the information on file and contact the Admissions Office if you need to make any changes to your contact information. Once you confirm your contact information, you’ll be led to the page where you can submit your New Student Fee.

Keep Up The Good Work! It matters how you finish your 8th grade year. Maintain your positive discipline and attendance reports and finish strong with your academics.
Save The Date • iPad Distribution for new students is expected to be the week of August 3. We will send you more information in the summer regarding dates and further instructions to pick up your iPad. iPads are not needed for Summer Enrichment courses for incoming freshmen. • Incoming freshmen are REQUIRED to come for both days of orientation on Thursday, August 6 and Friday, August 7 before school begins the following Monday. You’ll meet your LINK Leaders, set up your student iPad, familiarize yourself with our campus and much more. We want you to be and feel prepared for your first day of high school!
