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. Its member institutions cooperate in their outreach to prospective students, sharing resources at domestic and international admission fairs.
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. 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. 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.
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.
