During the student visit, parents will be invited to meet with our Admissions Director in order to learn more about the School and share information about their daughter. In advance of your meeting we request that you submit a Family Pre-Visit Questionnaire so we may better prepare for your visit. When complete, please send to the Baldwin Admissions Office.
