Founded in 1952, Ten Schools Admission Organization (TSAO) is a group of top ten New England college preparatory institutions that cooperate in their outreach to prospective students and their families. Our goal is to guide prospective families on their journey to find the most suitable secondary boarding school experience and to bring better understanding of boarding school education and its benefits. 

Boarding school offers students an immersive, experience-based learning opportunity within a supportive and diverse community of students and teachers. It is a close-knit community of learners who study, play, and live together that is conducive to shaping forward thinking students who are better prepared for college and life beyond. 

Each TSAO member school offers a wide range of experiences and traditions and each of them embody the highest standards of personal and academic excellence. As a group we offer access to comprehensive information about unique benefits of the boarding school. We share recruitment trips, links to each of our school's individual websites and provide access to an inquiry form about any of the member school to help you make your choice with confidence.
