The Ten Schools Admission Organization (TSAO) is a group of private, college-preparatory boarding schools in the Northeastern United States that cooperate in their outreach to prospective students.

Overview

TSAO was founded in 1952.[1] Its member institutions cooperate in their outreach to prospective students, sharing resources at domestic and international admission fairs.[2][3]

Although several TSAO schools no longer publish their endowment figures, in 2016 the TSAO contained ten of the twenty wealthiest traditional college-preparatory boarding schools in the United States, as measured by total size of endowment.[4] Seven TSAO members are also members of the Eight Schools Association, another group of large college-preparatory boarding schools.

At times, TSAO schools adopt common policies with respect to applicants and admitted students, such as a uniform deadline to accept or reject offers of admission.[5] The TSAO does not have a uniform policy with respect to standardized testing, and two of its member schools remain test-optional as of the 2024-25 application cycle.[6][7]

With one exception, every TSAO member educates both boarding and day students, and offers a post-graduate year. St. Paul's School educates only boarders, and admits neither post-graduates nor incoming seniors.[8]
