Cardinal Education is an independent educational consulting company. We are not affiliated, associated, authorized, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with any public or private school.
As independent educational consultants, we assist with the admissions process for colleges.
The oldest independent school in the US, Collegiate School, challenges, supports, and encourages boys daily through its demanding curriculum and extracurricular activities. Through involvement in many groups and organizations both inside and outside of the school, students are taught the importance of leadership and given the chance to improve and develop their leadership abilities. For the past ten years, the debate team has participated in contests across the nation, while the science team has participated in the Science Olympiad. We recognize that getting into a Collegiate School might be challenging because admission can be highly selective. We can guide you through the admissions process as independent educational consultants.
If you are interested, here are the application requirements:
1. Parent and Student Interviews
2. Writing Samples
3. Admission Testing (ISEE and SSAT)
4. Teacher Recommendation Forms
5. Transcripts
For Collegiate applications, we offer expert admissions help.
