Admissions
Telluride Mountain School’s admissions process is designed to ensure that a prospective student is
a good fit with the school’s culture and academic requirements. The Admissions Committee is, first
and foremost, interested in identifying candidates who possess a strong desire to learn and who
demonstrate a positive response to the school’s nurturing, multi-age environment.
Telluride Mountain School admits students of any race, color, national or ethnic origin or sexual
orientation, and to all of the rights, privileges, programs and activities generally accorded or made
available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of color, race, national or
ethnic origin in the administration of its educational and admissions policies nor in any of its other
school-administered programs.
Admissions decisions are made on a rolling basis.
Enrollment
If your child is accepted, a non-refundable deposit of $750 (Montessori) and a $2,000 (grades 1-12) is required within 30
days of the student’s written or verbal acceptance. All deposits must be accompanied by a signed
enrollment contract reserving the student’s seat and guaranteeing payment for the entire year’s tuition.
Returning Students
Re-enrollment decisions for students currently enrolled are made in late winter of each year, prior to
the admission of new students. Families will be offered a new enrollment contract for the upcoming
year, which must be returned within 30 days of the written offer of re-enrollment.
