The definitive guide to boarding schools in the United States.
For parents who are considering boarding school for their child, evaluating the many different schools to find the right fit can be an overwhelming experience. Navigating the application process can be even more complex and difficult.
Prep: The Parent’s Guide to BoardingSchools is filled with all the information, analysis, and advice parents need when researching boarding schools for their children. Written by a boarding school expert, it provides important details into boarding school life, types of boarding schools, and how to find the right school for your child. In addition, Prep offers an analysis of the role that attending boarding school plays in selective college admissions and ways that this type of education can help prepare students for their next steps in life. Parents concerned about the cost of boarding school will find information on financial aid, competitive full-ride merit scholarships, and free boarding schools.
Featuring insight from boarding school admissions directors on how they evaluate applicants and how to stand out in the admissions process, as well as stories from students and parents, Prep provides an invaluable inside look at boarding schools. Parents will come away feeling confident and prepared to help their child make an informed decision regarding their education, well-being, and future success.
