Sending Schools

The School for Ethics and Global Leadership’s sending schools include many of the nation’s top independent and public schools. Each school on this list has sent at least one student (oftentimes many) to SEGL. Many of our sending schools will also provide time and space for SEGL admissions representatives to speak to students during the admissions season each year.

SEGL has nearly 200 sending schools in 32 states (plus Washington, DC) and around the world. If you don’t see your school listed here but are interested in SEGL, please contact the Admissions Office. We accept applications from students at any school.

The Sending School Connection

Mission Alignment

The most important reason to become an SEGL sending school is mission alignment. SEGL’s mission is to provide a diverse group of intellectually motivated high school juniors from across the United States with the best possible opportunity to shape themselves into ethical leaders who will create positive change in our world. We encourage schools with similar goals to consider becoming a sending school.

Outstanding Academic Preparation

SEGL’s curriculum is demanding, practical, collaborative, and interdisciplinary. In addition to offering honors and/or AP-level courses in English, history, mathematics, sciences, and languages, SEGL requires an Ethics and Leadership class.

A Unique Opportunity

SEGL immerses students in the challenges facing the international community. It places the full scope of the world’s leading cities' (Washington, DC; Johannesburg, South Africa; and London, England) resources at students’ fingertips: public policy practitioners, NGOs, elected officials, embassies, and leading academics.

College Admissions

Students who attend SEGL should be well-positioned in the college admissions process. They will have completed a rigorous academic program alongside outstanding students from around the country that includes three capstone projects: a personal Credo; a collaborative, meticulously researched policy document; and a meaningful leadership project in their home community.
