NOTE TO INTERNATIONAL INQUIRIES: Norfolk Academy does not issue Form I-20 documents to students and, therefore, cannot accept students who are seeking multi-year enrollment and/or a high school diploma from Norfolk Academy under F-1 student visa status. However, international families who relocate to the area are welcome to apply if the student will be living permanently with his or her parent or guardian in the Tidewater area as a dependent on the parent's visa or if the child is otherwise eligible to study in the U.S.

Norfolk Academy admits students of any race, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, color, and national or ethnic origin to all the rights, privileges, programs, and activities generally accorded or made available to students at the school. It does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, color, and national or ethnic origin, or any other basis prohibited by federal or state law in the administration of its educational policies, admissions policies, employment policies, scholarship and loan programs, and athletic or other school-administered programs.
