Admission Process - Notre Dame Preparatory School

Visit Notre Dame

Come see us! Members of the Notre Dame Prep Admissions team are available every weekday to answer your questions and guide you through the admission process. Parents: we invite you to reach out to us by phone (248-373-1061) or email (admissions@ndpma.org), and we encourage you to submit an inquiry form. That’ll help us get to know your child better, and it’ll put you a step ahead when it comes time to apply.

You’ll have lots of opportunities to see yourself at Notre Dame, and we hope you’ll take the opportunity to visit us at any of our 2024-25 admission events.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS

Shadow Day
If you’re entering grade 6 or higher, we’d love for you to be Irish for a Day! We’ll match you with a great host, and give you the opportunity to experience four academic periods, Community Time and lunch. If you’re an applicant to our lower school, you’ll have a Visit Day scheduled for you at the end of the admission process. Click here to register.
Lucky Day (prospective 9^th graders only)
If you’re a future Fighting Irish 9^th grader and you’d like to have an extra-special shadow experience at NDP, you should join us for a Lucky Day. Current 8^th graders can choose one of two fall Lucky Days, and current 7^th graders can join us for one of two Lucky Days in the spring. On a Lucky Day, you’ll have a special welcome, match with your host, then experience three academic periods, lunch and Community Time. You’ll also get to compete in a scavenger hunt and be introduced to the best of NDP: Irish Week! Space is limited. Click here to register.
