Welcome to Annandale
Please use this site to familiarize yourself with Bard prior to your arrival on campus. We want your transition to be as seamless as possible, so we recommend that you spend some time learning about both the academic and campus life here at Bard. Some early college students will be participating in the Bard College Language and Thinking (L&T) Program, which will require an early arrival on campus. Please refer to the arrival schedules below.
