Admissions The admission season runs from September to January of a given academic year. Applicants typically apply, therefore, in the fall prior to their year of actual enrollment. Students usually apply to Delbarton for acceptance into seventh or ninth grades, though a few openings may be available every year to grades ten and eleven. Delbarton does not accept students into grades eight or twelve. A boy’s candidacy for admission will be considered only after he completes the application (either online or on paper), the school interview offered at Delbarton on Saturday mornings (from September to early January), and the Delbarton entrance examination (administered at Delbarton on three Saturdays – October 26, November 16 and December 7).
The Admissions Committee meets formally in late January regarding decisions to accept, wait pool, or decline students for grades seven and nine. Action on students for grades ten and eleven may take place as late as June. Delbarton seeks a broad diversity in its student body. The School is also committed to making its educational opportunities available to qualified young men regardless of their ability to pay. Delbarton demonstrates this commitment through a growing financial aid program designed to meet the proven financial need of enrolled families. For further information, please contact the Dean of Admissions, Dr. David Donovan, at (973) 538-3231, ext. 3022.
