KO to Host Workshop on Independent School Admissions Process

Knowing that the prep school admissions process can be daunting to newcomers, Kingswood Oxford is hosting a workshop that will explain how it works not only at KO, but also at independent schools in general. 

Geared for parents, the complimentary workshop will be held on Tuesday, Sept. 17, from 7-8:30pm in the Conklin Library on the KO campus in West Hartford.

Speakers will discuss how to find the right-fit school, the steps in the process (including deadlines and tips about the admissions interview), and the merit and financial aid that is available at many schools.

This year's Upper School enrollment of 366 students is the largest since 2008-09.
