The Prep 9 Consortium is an association of leading prep schools in the North East of the United States, all of whom support and participate in the Prep for Prep initiative. Each of the consortium schools is a household name and recognised as amongst the most prestigious private boarding schools in the country, if not the world.
ABOUT
The Prep for Prep initiative was set up in 1978 in New York City with a mission to find the brightest pupils of colour from poorer communities in the New York City area and help them to enter top-tier private college-preparatory schools. These pupils are offered a 14 month course designed to prepare them for admission into some of the nations’ leading boarding schools and day schools. The Prep 9 Consortium member schools and affiliate schools have committed places available to graduates of this scheme.
Pupils are selected for the program following a citywide search with admittance determined by exam scores and academic performance, however prospective students may get in touch with the admissions team to discuss entrance criteria and the admissions process.
Not all pupils who complete the Prep for Prep courses are guaranteed entry into the the Prep 9 Consortium association of leading prep schools. These boarding places are reserved for the highest achievers who have successfully completed the PREP 9 Course. However, graduates of other Prep for Prep programs typically are offered places at other leading private preparatory schools (particularly the leading private schools in the New York area associated with New York Interschoool); including:
