Your Path to HCOS
What to Expect After Applying

The Registrarâs Office will review your application to ensure it is complete, and you will receive an email outlining the next step in the application process.
A non-refundable $25 application fee is paid when you submit your application, and you will receive a confirmation email.
Step 2: Department Intake
Foundations K-9
You will receive an invitation to attend a virtual group session to learn more about HCOS. These sessions are run weekly.
Innovations 10-12
You will receive an email with a Calendly link to schedule a time to connect with the Registrar to learn more about HCOS.
Inclusive Education
Kâ9 applicants attend a virtual group session, and learn more about HCOS. Grades 10â12 applicants schedule an intake call with the Registrar or an Academic Advisor.
Step 3: Interview and Decision
A meeting or phone call will be set up with a Regional Administrator or an Academic Advisor for an interview to determine if HCOS is the right fit for your family.
This stage is dependent on the volume of applications and administrator availability; however, families can expect to have the opportunity to connect shortly after completing Steps 1 and 2.
