Enrollment FAQs
How does Method Schools flexible curriculum accommodate students joining and leaving at different times throughout the year?
We operate as a year-round school with open enrollment. Given the self-paced nature of our curriculum, students join and depart at various times throughout the year. Our data shows that students who stay with us for an extended period tend to excel academically. Therefore, we encourage all students to remain Method students for as long as possible, whether that means six weeks or six years. The key requirement is that they exclusively attend Method while enrolled with us.
