Visiting Grier is an important component of the admissions process. The informal visit allows for spontaneity, which provides authentic opportunities for discovery throughout the day.
During your visit to Grier, you will have the opportunity to meet with the admissions team, Head of School Gina Borst, and members of the Grier family. You will also take a walking tour of the campus—meeting faculty, students, and resident advisors along the way—and enjoy lunch in the dining room with Grier School Ambassadors.
Seeing classes and activities in action will best provide you with a complete picture of Grier. If you would like to attend a class or are interested in a specific signature program, athletic team, or student club, be sure we are aware of your interest when you schedule your visit so that we can make the most of your time at Grier.
