Question

Im a small town girl from tennessee is there a chance in h**l i can get into phillisp academy in andover?

Answer 1

Of course there's a chance. Remember, where you come from doesn't have to be where you end up. There are more important factors that being "a small town girl from Tennessee". How are your grades? Have you taken the SSAT ?? Have you toured Phillips Academy?? Do your parents have the $ to pay for the school or would you qualify for aid??

A friend of mine from high school was a small town boy from northern MN and he is currently living in New York City after doing graduate and undergraduate work at Harvard. Small town beginnings don't mean small town endings.

Answer 2

Where you live has nothing to do with elibility for admissions. Much weight is given to the demonstration of ability in  academic performance thusfar. Further consideration is given to one's ability to pay the annual costs for tuition and board, which is about $40,000.

In other words, if you've got the chops and you've got the money, you surely can attend most any boarding school you choose.
