Fort Worth Academy cooperates with three other independent schools – All Saints' Episcopal School, Fort Worth Country Day, and Trinity Valley School – in sharing joint admission policies, calendar, testing and notification dates. To be considered for admission at any other school, candidates must also file applications with those schools. Except under special circumstances determined by the test administrators, results are not valid if a test is administered to the student more than once within a given year.
