Admissions Process

City Center Academy seeks to enroll students who demonstrate integrity and a willingness to work toward academic achievement in a college preparatory program. Students will be accepted on the basis of:

  1. completed CCA application
  2. an entrance examination ($75 application fee required at time of testing)
  3. two teacher recommendations
  4. records from previous school(s) including:
    • transcripts and/or report cards
    • standardized test scores
    • discipline record
    • health records
  5. student and family questionnaires
  6. a family interview with the principal

City Center Academy is committed to Christ-centered education with Christian leaders, faculty and staff, a Christian philosophy of education, and a Christ-centered curriculum. Although most of our families profess to be Christians, this is not a requirement for enrollment. However, the school does require that you understand and support the Christian nature of your child’s education. These questions will help us learn why you have chosen to apply to a Christian school.

Application forms are also available by calling the Admissions Office at 215-731-1930.  We invite you to call the school with further questions, to arrange a tour, or to set up a time to shadow a CCA student.
