Application Requirements

Summer@Taft seeks students interested in striving for excellence. Students should be willing to conduct themselves maturely, both inside and outside the classroom, in order to take advantage of the challenging academic program. The summer atmosphere is informal, but the programs are designed with the expectation that each student will be willing to work hard to enhance his/her academic profile. Experience has shown that students who are unwilling to make a commitment to their work should not consider spending a summer at Taft.

Applicants will be evaluated on the basis of their academic record, the personal recommendation of their school head or principal, and the recommendation of two classroom teachers. The admissions committee is particularly interested in students whose enthusiasm will allow them to take full advantage of our summer programs. Applicants must be 12 years of age by June 1 of the program year.

Applications will be acted upon within two weeks of receipt of the application form, recommendations, and the application fee. While an interview is not required, students and their parents may visit the school by appointment.
