Admission and Aid
We seek academically talented, curious and engaged students from around the world. Our student body represents 49 states and 47 countries of citizenship, who are not only academically driven, but leaders in their schools and communities, dedicated to having an impact on those around them.

As part of our commitment, students are not asked to assume debt by taking out loans as part of their financial aid award.
