Boarding schools can offer students tremendous
opportunities for academic challenge, personal growth,
exploration, and support. By living in the mix of a
residential and academic setting, students are
immersed in an environment dedicated to student
success.
 
There is a huge range of options in the world of boarding
schools, including co-educational, single sex, large, small, those
that offer extremely challenging academics and those that offer
challenge with learning support, military schools, and more. Extra-
curricular options vary widely, too, as do school cultures.

Working with student placements and boarding schools is all
about finding the right fit based on student needs, abilities, and
interests. A successful boarding school experience can change a
student’s life forever in many positive ways. Read more about the

We work very closely with the family and admissions officers
when working on boarding school admissions. The first task is to
identify potential schools that will be appropriate matches for the
student, as well as excite the student about the thought of being a
part of those school communities. We then work together to
complete the application, and I can serve as a resource for the
student’s personal statements. (I do not write essays.)

Once the student hears about the school’s admissions decision,
we can discuss the final choice. After the student enrolls, we
maintain contact with the school periodically to make sure that
things are going smoothly. Throughout the entire process, it is
important that the families and consultant maintain frequent and
open communication.

Success Stories / Testimonials

Rebecca Grappo has
visited over 100 schools
and understands how a
school that might be
great for one student
may not work at all for
another.

"Given the fact that I started
my efforts to secure his
admission to the school so
late in the day, when the
junior class was essentially
already filled and all the
relevant deadlines were
long past, this result is
nothing short of miraculous.
I owe you a great debt of
gratitude for your
intervention on our behalf
which made all the
difference. I am certain that
you can imagine how
relieved I am to know that
he will be able to receive a
superb education in a safe
and secure environment."
