Summer Boarding
We welcome boarding campers ages 12–16. Boarding campers live in our dorm, across the street from campus.
The dorm is organized by gender-specific floors with double-occupancy rooms set up with a loft bed for each student. We pair campers with a roommate from another country when possible. Experienced Residential Advisors are present 24/7.
Boarding campers can look forward to the following dorm amenities:
- Common areas for relaxing and connecting
- Shared bathrooms and showers
- Laundry facilities
- Computers and Wi-Fi
The dorm is just a short walk away from our dining room where boarding campers will enjoy delicious and nutritious breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The dining room is housed in a modern building that also includes a theater, gym, and rooftop sports field where many camper activities will take place and is available to boarding campers with supervision.

Airport Transportation & Flights
Airport transport service is available for an extra $100 (each way) and must be scheduled three weeks in advance of your flight. Flights must arrive between 10:00am and midnight on the Sunday before camp starts and depart between 8:00pm Friday and 2pm on the Saturday after camp ends.
For pick-up, we will meet you outside baggage claim and send a picture of the shirt we will be wearing so you can find us. For drop-off, we will get you to the airport usually about 2.5 hours before your flight takes off, and make sure you get checked in or escorted to your gate if you are flying as an Unaccompanied Minor.
Unaccompanied Minor Service must be arranged and paid with your airline in advance if applicable. We will provide necessary information for unaccompanied minors at least one week prior to your flight.

Campers can check in to the dorm beginning on Sunday at noon before camp starts, and must check out on Saturday morning by 9 a.m. at the latest. Due to the integrative nature of our program, campers are discouraged from checking out of the dorm during the week, but arrangements can be made to visit family or friends on the weekends. These arrangements must be approved by the Dorm Director at the beginning of each session.
