6. The Lang School – $65,000 Yearly Tuition
The Lang School in New York City has some rather high standards for its students.
The Lang School’s website states that in addition to fulfilling the prerequisites for college, students “beyond taking college entry requirements, choose electives, develop a portfolio, acquire mentors, apply for competitive internships, and choose their college majors — typically by their junior year.”
All upper school students at this talented school are required to complete an independent study on a subject they are enthusiastic about in addition to paying a whopping tuition of $65,000 per student. For instance, the school advises “learning to disassemble and reassemble a Porsche” and “studying the history of surgical knots.”
5. The Oxford Academy – $67,000 Yearly Tuition
A name like The Oxford Academy practically begs the question of how much tuition anybody enrolling will be expected to pay.
This exclusive all-boys boarding school is situated in Westbrook, Connecticut, one of the wealthiest communities in the United States, and tuition is an eye-opening $67,000 a year.
For that much, this school promises its 48 pupils “individualized one-on-one lessons” that are “an alternative to the usual classroom format”.
Some students take advantage of their proximity to the water outside of the classroom by joining the sailing club at their school. Others benefit from the school’s overseas excursions, such its regular eight-day visit to Italy.
