For New Residents of the Cincinnati Public Schools District

Students moving into the Cincinnati Public Schools district during the school year or after the last Special College Preparatory Program examination is administered for that school year are eligible to apply for probationary enrollment to Walnut Hills High School. Parents of new student residents should call Test Administration for information at 513-363-0186.

To qualify for probationary enrollment, a student must have taken a nationally norm-referenced standardized test and have earned a national percentile ranking of 70 or above in reading and in mathematics. Only scores from grade 6 through grade 11 may be submitted for consideration. These scores must be faxed from the student’s previous school to Test Administration (fax: 513-363-0185).

If the student is approved for probationary enrollment, the student may enroll at Walnut Hills High School for one year. The student must take the Special College Preparatory Program Examination at the first opportunity after enrollment and must have passed the examination by the end of the school year in order to remain at Walnut Hills High School for the following school year.
