Admissions Process: Middle School

1. Visit Us (optional)

The best way to know whether your student and Maharishi School are a great fit is to visit. You’ll want to meet our teachers, our administrators, spend time in the classrooms, and meet the other students.

Visits to the Maharishi Middle School are arranged by appointment.  We request a two-week notice of all visits.  Open Houses are also scheduled several times each year. Local students are invited to spend a day in their age-appropriate classroom and out of town students are invited to spend 2 days in their age-appropriate classroom. After a student visits and is accepted, Middle School students must defer enrollment until the start of the next quarter.

To plan a visit, contact admissions@maharishischool.org or call (641) 472-9400 ext.5076.
