Admission to the Middle School is a thoughtful process designed to ensure that our incoming students are the best fit for the program and get a chance to really understand what Williston is all about.

If you have any questions about the Middle School Admission process, please contact the Admission Office at (413) 529-3241 or by email.

To learn more about the Williston Middle School, please fill out our inquiry form, and we will mail you a viewbook and enter you into our system. Once you do this, you will receive instructions on how to create a username and password to access our Admission Portal, which will allow you to track your progress along the way.

Our deadline for Middle School interviews is January 31, however we still have opportunities to interview through the end of February. Please call (413) 529-3241 or email our admission team to schedule your interview.

If you have standardized testing in the last two years including SSAT, WISC, MCAS, or other, please submit with your application. We will not require applicants to take the SSAT for Fall 2022.

An optional step in the Admission process (but well worth doing!) is to attend our Middle School Open House webinar, which is on Tuesday, January 10, 2023 at 7 p.m. You and your family will join a conversation with current faculty, students, and parents about the Williston Middle School community and the exceptional opportunities and educational experiences Williston offers. To register or for questions, please call or email the Admission Office at (413) 529-3241, or click the registration button below.

Our application deadline is January 15. You can apply to Williston using the Standard Application Online (SAO) .

Decision letters are mailed from the Admission Office on March 10, and accepted students (and their families) are invited to an Admitted Student Night a few weeks later. The event features presentations from faculty, current students, and parents. It’s a great chance to ask any last questions and mingle with other accepted students and families.

Williston’s enrollment deadline is April 10th. Decisions are made on a rolling admission basis for any student who finishes the application process after March 10. We encourage applicants who plan to apply after March 10 to call us directly at (413) 529-3241 regarding the availability of spaces for the coming academic year.
