WANTED: EXCEPTIONAL STUDENTS DETERMINED TO MAKE A BIG IMPACT.
welcome letter
Meeting motivated students and their families early in the Alzar School admissions process is one of the best parts of our jobs. Every year we get to travel across the country visiting schools and meeting prospective students and their families. While there are many reasons students are driven to apply to Alzar School, there is a common thread of pure motivation and drive to make the most of their high school experience. Having the opportunity to work with our students during the semester, we have a unique perspective to see real, transformative growth from when we first meet many of our applicants. If you are considering Alzar School and are curious about learning more, please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions. We’re here as your resource and look forward to learning more about you and what you can contribute to our community of adventurous learners.
Sincerely,
Jami Black and Emma Scott Singletary
The Alzar School Admissions Team

Sending Schools
Alzar School students join us from a wide range of schools across the country. We are incredibly proud of the diverse representation of schools present in any given semester. Some of the most prestigious independent schools in the country, large public high schools, charter schools, and everything in between help give our semesters a diverse and well-rounded community of learners.
Tuition & Financial Aid
The total cost of Alzar School includes tuition, room, and board as well as the international flight to and from Chile. In addition, Alzar School provides a majority of the outdoor gear needed for our backpacking and paddling expeditions and an academic iPad rental for the semester.
Alzar School works hard to be able to offer meaningful financial aid awards and encourages families to apply. Financial aid awards are need-based and independent of admission decisions.
