Please inquire by phone, letter, or in person to The Brookwood Community. We will be glad to provide information or answer your questions regarding our programs and, in general, try to give you an idea of the type of individual who may benefit from our programs.

If you feel the applicant's needs seem to be within the range of our staff expertise, we will ask you to attend a Brookwood tour which is scheduled regularly each month. Please call the office for the times and dates of the upcoming tours. These tours are invaluable and will give you a first-hand view of the program in action and of the facilities utilized to enhance our training and creative industries. On this tour you will also gain further insight into the Brookwood organization, our history, our expectations, and our future plans.

Should you feel that Brookwood has the program to fit your needs, you should complete a Brookwood application. The fee for processing this application is $50.00 non-refundable. The Admissions Committee conducts a thorough study of the information provided, determines the placement availability and suitability of each applicant, and notifies you whether or not to continue with the next step in the admissions procedure. The next step is an interview/conference with the Admissions Committee.

Both the Parent/Guardian and the Applicant will be notified to meet with appropriate committee members to discuss and review the following:

Family Plans, Medical History, Financial Responsibilities, Specific Individualized Program Possibilities, Evaluation Plans, Procedures for Enrollment and Dismissal, Duties of Surrogate Parent(s), Insurance Coverage, Expected Behavior, Conduct, Discipline, etc.

The Admissions Committee will notify you of their recommendation. The Committee may decide one of the following at this time:

• Further evaluation is needed.
• The candidate is not acceptable at this time.
• The candidate is accepted on a probationary basis. All new students are accepted on a probationary basis.

If the candidate is accepted, another conference will be held at which time the enrollment and intake procedures are discussed.
