            Admissions (2020-2021)


            Thank you for your interest in The Math & Science High School. This year, Chesterfield County Public Schools has adopted a new online application System.  Starting on December 1, 2020 families will have the ability to create an account to submit an application to the MathSci Specialty Center using School Mint.  Along with your transcripts and recommendations being completed through this system, CCPS will also distribute acceptance and wait-list notifications.

            When completing your application be sure to:
            • Include all of your activities and interest
            • Ask a math or science teacher (preferably 7th or 8th) for a recommendation.
            • Ask a second "core"  (included a high school level foreign language) teacher for a recommendation.
            • Complete the Critical Thinking Prompt for testing by the due date (sent by MathSci to each applicant).
            • Communicate with the MathSci Office if you have any questions.

            Admissions Testing (2020-2021)


            Traditionally, an admissions test would be administered in January at Clover Hill High School. However, this year due to Covid-19, we are altering how we evaluate our applicants. 


            Instead of our tradition admissions test that consisted of three assessments: reading comprehension, math, and writing; we will instead send applicants a Critical Thinking prompt for them to respond.  This will give us an opportunity to evaluate how applicants approach/solve a problem and analyze a passage.


            Admissions Timeline

            • Admissions letters are mailed in March by each center.
            • Shadowing for Accepted and Wait-Listed is held in March prior to the return of Letters of Intent (if permitted).
            • Wait list admissions begins in early April and continues throughout the summer until the start of the school year.
