O F STATE ADMISSION BY ASSOCIATE HEAD OF SCHOOL & DEAN OF ADMISSION PETER G. CURRAN
he 2019-2020 admission cycle was yet another remarkable year for Blair Academy. We received nearly 1,300 applications for admission, the most in our history, and the School is fully enrolled for 2020-2021. Our 460-plus member student body includes young people from 25 U.S. states and 26 countries, and 150 are new to Blair. Each of our students brings unique interests, talents and passions to our community, and I am excited to see how they will make our hilltop campus their home this year. Clearly, Blair’s warm and welcoming community, culture of caring, and distinctive academic and extracurricular programs resonate with families across the globe as they decide where their children will matriculate. In this annual update, I am proud to share some of the many ways—both traditional and innovative—that the admission team brought and continues to bring the one-of-a-kind Blair experience to life for prospective students and their parents.
