Boarding School Admissions Trends in 2023

Boardring_School-Trends_2023_Dr_Paul_Lowe_Admissions_Expert_Consultant

It’s a new year and we have observed trends throughout last year that have continued into this year in boarding schools and admissions.

Here are some highlights of trends in 2023 that U.S. and international families may need to follow in 2023.

  • Median enrollment for boarding schools are on the rebound and increasing. As a result, admissions to schools will continue to be competitive.
  • Admissions emphasis on “Character”:  Schools are increasing using Character Skills Assessment (CSA) which will offer insights into an applicant’s character attributes and add great value to the holistic evaluation of applicants to make informed admissions decisions of applicants.
  • Top boarding schools continue to expand:  Schools continue to build more buildings and facilities to accommodate students. 
  • Top 5 U.S. Boarding High Schools:  The top 5 U.S. boarding high schools – 1. Andover, 2. Exeter, 3. St. Paul’s, 4. Lawrenceville,  and 5. Choate.  Over the past 5 years, these schools have been sending 25-30 students each year to Ivy League colleges and universities.

Successful boarding school admissions requires expertise and experience to understand how to manage risks, navigate pitfalls, design the right admissions strategies, and most importantly understand the admissions policies and professionals who are making admissions decisions. In short, it requires an admissions expert.

Parents need a trusted resource to help them navigate the fast-paced and highly-selective admissions process!

Fairfax County Public High Schools (Virginia) contains 28 high schools. Over the past 4 years, MANY parents of high school students have contacted us regarding our college and BS/MD admissions advisory services. Dr. Paul Lowe and his team have worked with students from:

  • Chantilly High School
  • Langley High School
  • Madison High School
  • Marshall High School
  • Oakton High School
  • Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology
  • West Springfield High School
  • W.T. Woodson High School

Despite the fact that they are all excellent high schools, MANY parents contact Dr. Lowe because they mentioned that because of the size of the school, school counselors are either unable to provide continuous weekly or biweekly individualized college and/or BS/MD admissions services to each student. The senior class size for some of these schools exceed 600 students.
