What is Branson looking for in an applicant?

Branson is looking for students who have a strong academic record, but that’s just the starting point. Since they’re not looking at standardized test scores like the SSAT or ISEE, they put a greater emphasis on other parts of the application, like the interview, essay, and letters of recommendation.

They want to see students who have demonstrated commitment, dedication, and engagement in both their academics and extracurriculars. Admissions officers are looking for students who are passionate about learning and exploring their interests.

Here are the key things Branson is looking for:

  • Strong Grades: Your child’s transcripts are a major factor, as they show their ability to handle the school’s challenging curriculum.
  • Holistic Profile: Beyond grades, they want to see a well-rounded individual. This includes participation and dedication to extracurricular activities.
  • Authenticity: Through the parent and student statements, as well as the interview, they are looking for applicants who are genuine and have a unique voice. They want to see how your child thinks, what their passions are, and how they would contribute to the community.
  • Good Character: They are seeking students who are not only smart but also display strong character, integrity, and a willingness to be a positive and active member of the Branson community.
