January 7, 2025, is the deadline for all VBCPS and non-VBCPS students to submit their applications online. All students who wish to apply for an academy program must use the online application process which will be available on Friday, October 11, 2024. VBCPS students will log in with their VBCPS student credentials to create an initial application and to check on the status of their application throughout the process. Current VBCPS students, please use the buttons below to access the application.

Once your submission is received and reviewed, your student will be notified of an IB Entrance Exam date and time. Only incoming Freshman will be asked to take this exam. 

During the selection process, each program will establish a waiting list of students in the event that a student who is offered a position chooses not to accept or transfers prior to the start of the school year. The waiting list will remain active only until the last business day prior to the first day of school. Students must re-apply for consideration for the next school year.

If you are a military family, moving to Virginia Beach on military orders out of our application timeline, please view the information regarding Military/NATO application section of the website (listed until ADMISSIONS tab).
