In our experience, Asian Americans need more help in The Masters School admissions.

The Masters School is a co-educational day and boarding school for students from 5th to 12th grade. The school offers a rigorous academic program that focuses on active intellectual exploration with the intention of developing independent thinkers and empowered learners. As early as middle school, students are encouraged to pursue interests in innovation and entrepreneurship and are continuously scaffolded in their passions until upper school with programs that delve into design thinking, social entrepreneurship, engineering, and computer science. We understand how hard it is to get into The Masters School. Cardinal Education offers unbiased advice to let your Asian American child stand out in The Masters School admissions process.
