Saddle River Day School is a welcoming community for international students who are well represented throughout the high school grades. In recognition of the value added services provided by the school, SRDS charges a $3,000 fee for all newly enrolled international students effective with the 2018-2019 academic year. Our full tuition rates and fees for the 2018-2019 academic year are listed here: 2018-2019 Tuition & Fees
The International Student Fee covers a variety of activities including the following:
I-20 Processing
Saddle River Day School is approved by the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Naturalization Services to issue I-20 forms to students from other countries who wish to attend school in Northern Bergen County, NJ. Once a student is accepted into the school and has submitted an enrollment contract along with a non-refundable deposit, an I-20 form can then be issued. This I-20 form is required in order to obtain an F-1 Visa. Please contact our Director of Admissions, Geoffrey Bowman to inquire regarding space availability or for further details: gbowman@saddleriverday.org
Orientation Days
International Students have an opportunity to meet other students and get to know the SRDS community during the last week of August. Students will take part in various workshops, team building activities, and a field trip.
Coordinator of International Students
Students have access to a dedicated Program Coordinator. The Coordinator develops an ongoing supportive relationship with each student and is available to help students with social and emotional needs as they transition to our school.
Head of Upper School
International Students meet with the Head of Upper School on a regular basis and share their experiences. Different activities will be planned during these sessions.
Field Trips
