<p>For anyone stumbling on this thread in the new admissions season, I’ll echo the arts schools and based on the experiences of friends or children of friends, add Exeter as a place that I know has an active GSA and an accepting environment. A friend whose son graduated from Andover said he did NOT feel comfortable coming out there, though others have had different experiences. His brother was out through his entire career at Concord and felt safe and welcome. </p>
<p>As always, YMMV.</p>
