Application Process
We're excited to get to know your family!
Country Day’s application cycle begins one year in advance of a child’s anticipated entry. Below are details about our application process, and we invite you to contact us at admissions@saccds.org if you have any questions.
- Our main admission entry points are Pre-Kindergarten, Kindergarten, Grade 6, and Grade 9. We accept applications to all grades, and for those that are not main entry points, space is dependent on attrition.
- 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.
