Country Day’s application cycle typically begins one year in advance of a student’s anticipated entry. Our main admission entry points are Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, Grade 6, and Grade 9; however, we accept applications for all grades, and the admission team can advise on potential space availability.

Please note: Pre-Kindergarten applicants are four years of age by September 1 of the year of projected enrollment, and Kindergarten applicants are five years of age by September 1 of the year of projected enrollment.
