For grades 9–12, boarding at Maharishi School is focused, college-preparatory, and free of distraction. Students live on campus in a close-knit, global community, and leave prepared not just for a great university, but for life. Here's what that means, who it's for, and how to find your family's path in.
Boarding means your student lives on campus, in a closely supervised, on-campus dormitory, and goes to school just steps from their door. Your student's days are structured: classes, study hours, meals, activities, and rest, all in one place. It's an immersive way to grow up: more independence, fewer distractions, and a vibrant international community.
Done well, boarding gives a student things a day school can't: focus (a distraction-free rhythm, in class and out — structured, never hovering), independence (they learn to run their own lives, early and well), and perspective (classmates from around the world, lifelong friendships, and a network that spans it). And it's a proven path to strong colleges.
Getting into a good college is the bare minimum a boarding school should deliver. We do that — one in three of our graduates goes on to a top-50 university.¹
But we also prepare them for life: the focus to go deep, the resilience to bounce back, the self-knowledge to lead. We call it 200% of life, and it's the whole reason we exist.
