All on-campus admissions events can be found on our Visit Us page.

2s and 3s Program

A campus visit includes an informational session and Q&A with our Preschool administration and Admissions team. Families are welcome to attend an Open House any time prior to submitting an application for admission. 

Pre-K (4s)

Families interested in this program should attend a Lower School event to meet our leadership team and learn more.
 

After you have submitted an application and have attended a virtual Open House or admissions event, schedule your parent interview via Ravenna. 

Interviews are for parents and/or guardians only and are approximately 45 minutes long. Both in-person and virtual options are available.

Schedule your child’s playgroup via Ravenna. Your child may be accompanied by any adult with whom they are comfortable.

Playgroups are 30 minutes long for 2s and 3s applicants, and 45 minutes long for Pre-K applicants. 

Please note that regardless of the campus to which you are applying, applicants can attend a playgroup on either our Riverside or 94th Street Campus.

All 3s and Pre-K (4s) applicants who are currently enrolled in a fully separated preschool program must submit the confidential Independent School Admissions Association of Greater New York (ISAAGNY) school report. This report will be given to your child's current school and must be submitted directly from their school to ours. If your child presently attends an ISAAGNY school, they can supply you with the form. It can also be downloaded here.
