Admissions Process

Saint Rose Catholic School accepts inquiries for Preschool through 8th Grade throughout the year, with admission based on current enrollment availability and completion of the application review process.

Families interested in enrolling are encouraged to begin by contacting the school office at (805) 238-0304 or schedule a tour. Our team is happy to answer questions, discuss grade-level availability, and help you understand the next steps.

Steps to Apply

Families begin learning about Saint Rose by completing a New Student Inquiry Form. After the form is submitted, a member of our team will follow up to answer questions, discuss availability, and help schedule a campus tour.

After a family has visited Saint Rose, students applying for 2nd through 8th Grade may be asked to provide:

Letter of recommendation
Report cards from the past two years
Test scores from the past two years

These documents help Saint Rose better understand each student’s academic background and determine appropriate placement.

After the school tour and required documents have been submitted, the school will contact the family to schedule an interview and student assessment, if applicable. This step helps ensure Saint Rose Catholic School is the right academic, social, and spiritual fit for each student.

Following acceptance, families will receive an enrollment email with instructions to finalize registration. To complete enrollment, families may be asked to provide:

Copy of birth certificate
Copy of Social Security card
Copy of Catholic baptismal certificate, if applicable
Copy of First Communion certificate, if applicable
