Tilton School Postgraduate Year, Tilton, NH, 3276

For more than 165 years, Tilton has combined academic rigor with social, creative and athletic opportunity to enable every student to tap into the power of his or her potential, preparing them for life beyond the Hill. This common purpose is what convinced me and my family to choose Tilton for this stage in our lives.  When we stepped on campus, we immediately sensed how everyone in this unique community appreciates and values those around them.  This caring extends itself not only to school, but also to the diverse communities of which we are a part.  It was easy for my wife, Rachel, and me to see our own children thriving in this challenging and yet supportive and rewarding environment. At Tilton School, our philosophy is simple. Young people have within them the potential to learn, to lead, and to change the world.  Our faculty cares about each student and helps him or her to navigate the demands of a rigorous college preparatory curriculum. We set high standards for all students while the community as a whole brings energy and a commitment to help students be successful.
