Welcome to Virtual Admitted Students Day! We are excited to have you and your family join us online for a full day of live panel discussions and chats with staff, faculty, and students, as well as podcasts, videos, readings, and performances.
Introductions from me—Mackie Siebens ’12, director of admission—and Leon Botstein, president of Bard College, will start your day. Following these introductions, please explore the diverse information booths and webinars at your own pace.
The Bard community has come together from all over the world to make sure you gain an authentic understanding of everything that Bard has to offer. We’ll be available all day to take your questions, so feel free to jump on a live chat if you want to connect with us.
Thanks for joining us, and enjoy!
