Admission Process

Let’s get to know each other.

The Fishburne Admissions process is designed to help us get to know your son better, while helping you learn more about Fishburne. For starters, we accept new students in grades 7 or 8. We also admit transfer students into the upper grades if space is available.

It’s also important to understand that we’re looking for boys who not only meet our standards for admission but—and this is essential—truly want to attend Fishburne. While we have a gift for seeing what’s great in boys, we can only truly succeed with boys who have a desire to be here and bring their best to the experience.

Want to get to know us? Contact Admissions to schedule a tour or speak with our admissions director: call 1-800-946-7773 or email admissions@lsxythnjy.com.
