Explore the International Experience
We view curriculum as an expansive enterprise, believing that students should explore the world beyond the classroom. Throughout the years, our students have participated in school-sponsored international trips to locations such as France, Spain, China, Guatemala, and Costa Rica.
We welcome applications from international students at all grade levels—Lower, Middle, and Upper School. Our warm community embraces families and students from across the globe, preparing them for success whether at an American university or anywhere their lives will take them. Upper school international students have the option to apply for full-time admission with the goal of graduating from Country Day, or they may attend as visiting students for a period ranging from six weeks to a full academic year.
Recently, our campus has been enriched by students from countries including China, Italy, Germany, and Ukraine, among others.

"I have studied at Country Day for a year and a half. This experience made me more confident about myself. In China, I was shy and not confident, but my favorite part of being here is making friends. I have become more outgoing since I came to CD."

"Attending Country Day was probably my most charming school experience I have ever had the pleasure to encounter. I had the pleasure to experience learning and education from a different perspective and challenge myself both on an educational and a personal level."
