Boarding schools always plan a variety of activities for your free time. Movies, skiing, hiking, horseback riding, tennis, swimming, trips to cities and shopping are only a few of the things most schools offer. At most schools, every student has an advisor, someone who is there for you if you need help or just someone to talk to. This faculty member will be sure that you are happy and well adjusted. You will immediately make friends with your roommate or other students because many of them will be as nervous as you are in a new school.
American students are always very interested in meeting students from other countries.
Often there are activities by and for international students.
