Navigating the Process with RNG by Your Side

Boarding schools offer some of the most incredible educational opportunities you can imagine for their students! These may include:

  • small class sizes
  • warm and welcoming communities where kids know they belong
  • caring teachers
  • enriched academic opportunities
  • support for different learning styles and needs
  • a huge range of extracurricular activities from athletics to the arts as well as clubs and organizations
  • study and travel abroad.

The right boarding school community can be an outstanding place for an adolescent to grow, mature, and prepare for college.

We work with all kinds of students who are considering boarding schools. Some have outgrown their current schools and need more of a challenge. Others are in schools that do not understand their needs or how they learn best. Still other students feel overwhelmed in their big public schools but thrive when they feel valued and recognized for who they are.

Much like college, navigating the boarding school admission cycle is a process which involves:

  • finding the right school that fits the student’s needs
  • interviewing
  • touring
  • completing the application
  • making a final decision.

It’s often an emotional process and one where both students and parents appreciate having both professional help and support.

Here at RNG International we love working with boarding school students and families. Not only have we visited hundreds of boarding schools both in the United States and in Europe, but we’ve been through the experience as a family. Michelle attended a boarding school and Rebecca has been the mother of a student in boarding school. This gives us a unique perspective on what to look for – and what to avoid – when selecting a school.

There are relatively few consultants who specialize in boarding school placement, but boarding school is a robust part of RNG International’s practice. Rebecca has made hundreds of boarding school placements for children of U.S. diplomats during her time working at the State Department, and has continued to build her expertise in this area.
