The Wildcat Experience
(for 8th grade students)
The eighth grade student will be paired with an SI student who is familiar with the campus, activities, and classes. The visiting student will tour the school and visit a handful of classes with the SI student. During this time, the eighth grade student should feel comfortable to ask questions in an informal setting. We want the visiting student to have an informative and enjoyable personalized Wildcat Experience with an SI student during their time on campus. Parents feel free to check out our Parent Experience.
The Wildcat Experience will be just over two hours (9:15am - 11:30am) and reservations are required. Doors open at 9:05am and will close promptly at 9:15am. Please be on time and allow time for parking. Reservations will be available beginning on Wednesday, August 27, 2025 at 12pm. You do not need an account through MySI or Eventbrite in order to sign up for a Wildcat Experience visit day. Please only make one Wildcat Experience reservation per student. If you've made more than one reservation, please contact us immediately at admissions@siprep.org or cancel your additional reservation directly through Eventbrite. We want to ensure that every student who wants to visit SI has the opportunity to do so. Please note - we do not have a waitlist for Wildcat Experience reservations.
