We are delighted that you are considering MA as your next home and cannot wait to get to know you!

Applying to Marin Academy begins by creating an account on Ravenna, our web-based application site. If you haven’t already done so, create an account in Ravenna, and complete a student profile.

When you are on your dashboard, click on the “Apply to a school” button, which will lead you to the School Directory. Once there, search for Marin Academy, and click on the “Apply” button. (Don't worry—clicking on the "Apply" button doesn't force you to complete the application, but it allows you to register for admissions events.) Students have a myriad of opportunities to share their many skills and talents through our comprehensive application process. We look forward to getting to know you!

Once you decide you would like to apply to Marin Academy, log into your Ravenna account, and click on your Marin Academy Application page to begin the application steps which are listed below.
