**This page is for First Year students applying for the current application cycle. If you are a Transfer or RCP student please refer to the Transfer & RCP tab. This is an optional, informal conversation with an Admission representative (about 20–30 minutes). It’s a chance for you to learn more about life at Bard—academics, community, and resources—and, if you wish, to share brief context you’d like us to keep in mind when we review your application (for example: course changes, family responsibilities, grade trends, or time away from school). There’s nothing to prepare; just bring your questions. Choosing not to schedule a conversation will not disadvantage your application. Note: In-person conversations are led by trained Student Ambassadors. If you prefer to speak with a Admission Counselor, please select a virtual conversation.
