Virtual Application Process

Step 1: Inquire

Completing an online inquiry form allows the admission office to get in touch with your family to invite you to virtual events, answer your questions, and keep you up-to-date about what’s happening at Country Day. Let’s get the conversation started, complete our online inquiry form.

The 2021-22 priority deadline for admission to all grade levels is February 1, 2021. Those who apply on or before this date will not be charged a $150 application fee.

If you don’t already have a CavNET account, you will need to sign up for one before applying.

Once you complete our online application, you’ll receive your “application checklist” which outlines the supporting materials required, dependent upon your child’s grade. These materials may include items like grades/transcripts, standardized test scores, teacher recommendations, etc. Read more about the online application process here.
