The Western Boarding Schools Association is a consortium of the best boarding schools located in the western regions of the United States and Canada.
Member schools are accredited, non-profit, and independent boarding schools with academic college-preparatory programs across the Western United States and Canada.
WBSA member schools partner together to promote the incredible benefits of western boarding through a shared website, social media, boarding school panels, and admission fairs.
What we do
A shared platform and social presence that tell the story of western boarding to families everywhere.
Boarding school panels and regional admission fairs that bring member schools and prospective families together.
An annual spring conference focused on trends and best practices across boarding and university admission.
Members of WBSA gather each year for the annual spring conference, typically held in late April or early May.
This opportunity for professional development focuses on trends and best practices within boarding school admission departments, and on the relationships that make the association strong.
