How to Apply

We encourage students to meet with an Admissions Advisor prior to applying in order to gain valuable guidance on submitting a portfolio and application. Advisors are available to meet in person, over the telephone, or through Zoom.

To schedule an appointment, please contact Gnomon either via phone at 323.466.6663 or email Admissions directly.

Portfolios should include 15 - 20 pieces in either digital or hardcopy format.

For detailed information, please view our Portfolio Guidelines.

As evidence of high school completion, or equivalent, please submit an official hardcopy of one of the following documents via post:

• Official high school transcripts providing graduation date or proof of completion. High school diplomas will not be accepted.
• Certified copy of the student’s General Educational Development (GED) certificate, GED transcript, or approved equivalent.
• Official college/university transcripts that indicate completion of a bachelor’s or graduate degree.

Unsealed or unofficial transcripts will not be accepted.

If the School has reason to believe that the high school documentation is not valid or was not obtained from an entity that provides secondary school education, the School will evaluate the validity of a student’s high school completion that includes (1) receiving documentation from the secondary school that confirms the validity of the student’s diploma, and (2) confirming with or receiving documentation from the relevant department or agency in the state in which the secondary school is located that the secondary school is recognized as a provider of secondary school education.

For instructions on submitting transcripts and diplomas, please see the section, Academic Documents.

All applicants are required to complete an interview with an Admissions Advisor for consideration to a full-time program. The purpose of the interview is to give Gnomon an opportunity to get to know each applicant better, as well as review school policies and the expectations of students attending Gnomon.

The interview also gives applicants an opportunity to discuss their portfolio and application submission in greater detail. Interviews should be conducted once other required materials have been submitted. We are happy to accommodate those who are unable to visit our campus in person by scheduling a phone or Zoom interview.
