I live in a relatively small town and am highly interested in attending a boarding school for a multiplicity of reasons. Due to circumstances earlier this year, I was not able to apply during the regular admissions period. Are there any good boarding schools, both in the U.S. and international that are still accepting applications for 2021-2022? In saying good, I am referring to strong academics, ethos, and campus. A diverse student body would be excellent as well.
Go here: Find a school with the School Search - SSAT
Click the box that says “Still Accepting Applications.”

Asheville School in NC and Fountain Valley in CO are rolling. They have strong academics and great communities.
And Ameridad is correct in that SSAT and Boardingschoolreview.com will have a list of schools that may still have openings but aren’t usually rolling admissions.

Is NEIA accepting boarders yet? This will be their first year up and running and they are starting with grade 6 and 9 from what I hear from a friend that works there.
Yes - my son will be boarding, I think they had almost 20 boarders last I heard. I don’t think they were planning on having boarders but they have the space and there were kids who preferred to board so they will accommodate boarders.
They also are offering FA which many rolling admissions schools are not.
Have you read about their tuition policy? You lock in at the tuition you start at, which I think is a great policy.
