Applicants to Lower School spend part of a school day at CSG in the classroom with their potential peers. Call the Office of Admission to schedule your daughter’s visit day. Go here for more information about your child's visit to CSG.
Testing
Applicants to Forms I and II will complete age-appropriate assessments with a teacher during their visit.
Applicants to Forms III-IV take the Independent School Entrance Exam (ISEE) during their classroom visit. We will send you individual registration information after your daughter's visit is scheduled. Form V applicants take the ISEE at a scheduled testing date. Please review test dates and register your daughter for this assessment online or by calling (800) 989-3721.
Teacher Recommendation
Sign the recommendation form and give it to your daughter’s current teacher after November 1 so that the teacher has time to get to know her. The teacher should send the recommendation form directly to CSG Admission Office.
