Admission
Carolina Friends School is a vibrant and inclusive learning community empowering students to think critically, creatively, and independently. We prepare students to be lifelong learners who think deeply and question the world around them.
We enroll over 500 students in our four developmentally designed units: Early School, Lower School, Middle School, and Upper School.
We encourage you to begin the admission process in the fall prior to your child’s year of entry to allow time to explore our program and campus and to provide you flexibility in completing the application requirements.
Help us get to know you through our inquiry form or by contacting 919-383-4844 or enrollment@cfsnc.org. Questions and conversation are always welcome. We look forward to starting this journey together.
