Admissions Overview

JPII utilizes rolling admissions which means that once all of a student’s application materials (application, academic records, and recommendations) are received, they are forwarded to the admissions committee for review and a decision is then shared with the family.

December 1: Application fee increases from $25 to $50

January 31: Deadline for Smart Aid application to be considered for tuition assistance

February (Date TBD): NC Opportunity Scholarship application assistance

Late April/Early May: Placement Test for admitted and enrolled students

We understand that because of the coronavirus some prospective families might not be comfortable with an in-person tour. If so, please visit our Virtual Admissions Center for alternative ways to learn more about JPII including a Virtual Tour.

Otherwise, you can use the calendar below to request a private tour with Director of Enrollment Management Doug Smith to see the school firsthand. It’s the best way to see and experience everything that JPII has to offer.

Shadow Days are currently on hiatus. We intend to add dates during the 2021-2022 school year.

Schedule a shadow day (optional) for your prospective student to visit during an academic school day to see what it is like to be a JPII student.

There is an application fee that is paid on the last step of the online application:

• $25 if received by November 30
• $50 if received December 1 or after

All applicants need to submit a signed records request, a copy of their current year most recent report card, and a copy of their final report card from the previous school year. Documents should be submitted via email to admissions@jp2highschool.com.

Two recommendations are required (have people writing recommendations use our online recommendation form):

1. Current or previous year math or science teacher
2. Current or previous year English or social studies teacher

From time to time and for various reasons, the admissions committee asks to meet with an applicant and their parents before making a decision on their application. This is not to indicate that they are leaning one way or another, it is simply to gather more information.
