Does the Collegiate School interview parents?

Yes, Collegiate School does interview parents or guardians as part of the admissions process. This conversation is required for applicants to all grade levels and is typically conducted virtually. The parent/guardian interview gives the admissions team a chance to learn more about the student’s background, interests, and family values. It also allows parents to ask questions and better understand Collegiate’s mission, community, and expectations. For younger applicants, particularly in Kindergarten and Lower School, the interview is an important part of the holistic evaluation process. For Middle and Upper School applicants, it complements the student visit and helps the school assess overall fit. Interview appointments are scheduled through Ravenna once the application has been submitted.
