Who Should Apply?
We consider bright, motivated applicants from families who value robust, holistic education. We provide an alternative for students who might not thrive or are not challenged in the crowded classrooms of the typical public or private school. We give students individual attention and teach emotional engagement in a more humane environment than that found in bigger schools. Students are chosen to construct a well-balanced, socially compatible, and intellectually diverse group. We maintain a rolling application deadline.
