National Cathedral School

Welcome to Admission and Financial Aid

We look forward to getting to know you! We invite you to explore our website and hope you will imagine yourself at NCS, a school which believes in the power of young women!

NCS is an educational community which inspires each student to become her best self. NCS students are confident, creative, independent, and resilient. Our program is designed to capture students’ intellectual curiosity and fuel their academic, artistic, athletic, and personal growth. NCS’ identity as an Episcopal school and historic affiliation with the Washington National Cathedral provide a remarkable opportunity to learn and grow in the embrace of a spiritual community that honors people of all faiths, nurtures each community member, and values service to others.

We take pride in our warm and inclusive community and hope you will take the next step in discovering it for yourself. Please come visit our campus, take a tour, and see NCS in action.

We look forward to meeting you and your family and sharing the NCS experience.
