Student:Once you have completed an application, all applicants to grades 9-12 are invited to a Student Visiting Day where they will attend classes with an RPCS student hostess, meet other students, teachers, the Upper School Division Head and member of the Studio and Performing Arts and Athletics communities. Each student will have an interview with a member of the Admissions Committee.

Other things to know:

• What to wear: Comfortable attire. If you have a school uniform, you can wear it — many visitors do. 
• What to bring: You don’t need to bring any school materials with you. Bring any medications/inhalers that may be needed over course of your visit. We will also let the nurse know of medical concerns.
• Lunch: Snack and lunch are provided. If you feel more comfortable bringing your own lunch, you may — but our Dining Hall has amazing food!

Parents & Guardians:Parents and Guardians will be interviewed the morning of their daughters Visiting Day by a member of our Administrative Council, followed by a roundtable discussion with our Head of School, Caroline Blatti, and a student led tour of RPCS. If you are unable to join us the day your daughter is visiting, please contact the Admissions Office to schedule another time to visit campus for your interview.

Students applying for grades 9-12 are required to take the Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE).
