Application Process

Students admitted to the University Laboratory School are selected from
those whose applications are current and complete. Families making
application should recognize that there are 100 places in kindergarten and
very few openings for students in grades 1-12.
All elementary students will be required to complete a
readiness screening prior to final admission and placement.

General Information

If your child is applying for Kindergarten, please forward the principals
recommendation form to the child’s current pre-K teacher and ask that the
form be sent directly to the school when completed.
If your child is applying for grades 1-5, please forward the principal's

All students accepted into the 5th or 9th grade must take and pass the
LEAP exam.
When submitting your application, please ensure that all required
documentation is attached. Your application must be received complete. We
ask that the student’s transcript or report cards are attached to the
application rather than being mailed directly from the school. The
transcript does not need to be official at this time. Please make all copies
before coming to the office.
The Lab School does not provide transportation to and from school. It is
the responsibility of parents to arrange for timely drop off and pick up of
their children from school.

There is a non-refundable $20 application fee, payable by check or money
order made payable to Louisiana State University. Please do not send cash.
