Admission

Do you think your high school experience should look different? We think so.
Welcome to Walnut Hill
At Walnut Hill, a private boarding school near Boston, MA, you don’t need to relegate the practice of your art to an after-school activity, nor do you need to force your high school education to take a backseat to artistic pursuits. At Walnut Hill, you get to have it all.
We offer unparalleled training in Dance, Music, Theater, Visual Art, and Writing, Film & Media Arts (WFMA), complemented by a robust and innovative academic curriculum. Every aspect of our program helps you to grow as a bold artist, curious learner, and mindful citizen.
