Let’s connect! We have planned several admissions receptions and will be attending school fairs throughout the U.S. and around the world — these are great opportunities for our admissions officers to meet you and your family and for you to get to know our SPS community better.
Please check our event and travel schedule below to see if we will be near your hometown. Our calendars are updated regularly, so please check back for updates, changes and additional events.
If you wish to schedule an interview with an admissions officer when we are in your area, we can arrange a convenient time and place to meet.
For more information, call us at 1-888-644-9611 or e-mail admissions@sps.edu. We look forward to meeting you!
