Acceptance Rates % for New England Prep Schools

Is there a link for charting out acceptance % rates for regional prep schools in the North East? I really do not want to put out a huge net. I want to focus on schools that are a good fit and appropriate for my son. Thank you for any information you can share.

Boarding school review dot com is a great resource for that. They have lots of stats on boarding schools. Note that there is often a little bit of a lag on some information so it’s always good to follow up detailed information by checking school websites.

Thank you.

The most up to date information might be found on the web-pages for each school. You can check the “school profile” to determine if their acceptance rate was posted for the last year.

@cocoonondagahill , one bit of warning on this – most schools show a single acceptance rate. A school might be significantly easier to get into as a boarder than as a day student. Or it may be very popular with foreign students. Or it may not have tons of FA and you may need it.

So while you are wise to be trying to understand your odds, know that the number the school reports in unlikely to resemble your odds.

Look at the schools website and boarding school review to know school acceptance rate. you can google it. make sure you include more schools in your selection

Not sure if still true, but in the past BSR lacked information for Andover & St. Paul’s School in some categories.

And it also can vary from year to year, especially if it’s small.
