CTL’s Admissions Process:

A. Deciding if CTL is a good fit: Learn about the school by attending an Open House or Open Tour. CTL's next Open Tour will be Friday, March 7 from 8:15-10:00. CTL's spring Open House will be held on Sunday, April 6, from 3:30-5:00. Please RSVP to sarah@c-t-l.org or call the office at 207-882-9706. Ask a specific question by using our inquiry form or calling the school at 207-882-9706.

B. Applying: Once you know you would like to apply, do so by:

1. Fill out an TADS online admissions application.
2. Tour the school and attend a Morning Meeting.
3. Schedule and have the applicant attend a student visit day.
4. Complete application process.

Families will be notified of admissions decisions on or before March 10.

If you are ready to move forward with an application and join CTL’s waitlist, please apply using the TADS enrollment system. Contact the office with any questions.

Tuition — $12,800 in 2025-26, grades Pre-K--8. We are committed to making a CTL education affordable for as many students as possible. The tuition fee, which is kept as low as possible, is much less than that of comparable Maine independent schools. In addition, families can apply for tuition assistance based on income for the previous year. Payment plans are available, with single pay, two payment, and ten payment options.

This year, CTL will hold open houses in October and April. Please inquire before attending to prioritize admissions. Once families have completed an admissions application, they can schedule a tour and visit to Morning Meeting and speak with Katy afterward.
