Largest Student Body
Among "All Schools," view the twenty boarding schools with the "largest student bodies." First, some important notes:

  • School size comparisons are based on overall population of the school, not the number of boarding students at the school.
  • The balance between boarders and day students can also be another factor to consider when looking at school size.
