How can families assess if a boarding school is the right fit for their child?

Determining the “best” school is more about finding the proper fit than relying on rankings. Ask yourself: Are classes your child finds interesting offered by the school? Are their support networks for overseas students solid? How about student life, arts, sports, or club program offerings? Think about the location, size, and kind of student community the institution promotes. If possible, visit the campus, arrange a virtual tour, or speak with admissions officials to determine whether your child may meet current students. A good match will enable your child to feel not only personally but also academically comfortable, supported, and inspired.
