Phillips Academy

I visited this February. All the students were out and about, even after sundown (4:30pm), and looked very happy. Such a warm, cozy school! I get the sense that these kids have a lot of free time? If you're in town for a good time, there's a nightclub located conveniently on campus called "The Den." Stop by for the best cold brew, individual Swedish Fish, and good vibes Northeastern Massachussets has to offer. If I could give it a six-star rating, I would. Five stars!

Incredible permanent collection of exceptional art mostly from 19th and 20th centuries . Special exhibits we're wonderful the Harry Benson photography exhibit was exceptional . There is a curator at work,hard at work bringing diverse works to the public ...bravo ..go often the campus is beautiful to boot ...

I came back from a field trip there, the two people from each school who have the best essays on why they should go get a free summer tuition. I was picked as one of the 7th graders from my school to get a chance in. They have a large campus, as far as the eye can see, great food, and everyones very polite. I would really enjoy it as a school to regularly go to. Apparently every week, the scholars who get the free tuition will go on a field trip. 10/10. Would reccomend, even if the tuition is over 50 thousand dollars per student in high school.

Andover is the only place I've been both accepted just as I am and inspired to do more and be a better version of me. Even today when I visit, I learn constantly and begin to dream bigger again. The people are earnest, kind and fair, the faculty and staff always working to find better ways to empower students and each other. They strive for balance and work hard. It isn't easy or perfect, but it's a safe place to explore ideas and I recommend it to anyone who wants to make the most of who they are.

My daughter went to Andover and loved it. I would recommend it for students who are highly independent and motivated to learn in a fast-paced environment with stimulating teachers and students from around the world. It enriched her life and now that she has her own kids (and writes and teaches), her education here is helping many others, too.
