St. Andrew's is a private, Episcopal, co-educational 100% boarding school near Middletown, Delaware. It is one of only three co-ed college preparatory schools in the United States where all students board. St. Andrew's has 318 students, and is highly selective, accepting 18% for the 2021–2022 school year.[1]

Despite its relatively small student body, it has one of the largest secondary school campuses in the United States, spanning 2,200 acres.[2] In 2024, Architectural Digest named St. Andrew's one of the "World's 9 Most Beautiful Boarding Schools."[3] St. Andrew's offers 130 courses each year, in 10 disciplines.[4]

Tuition and financial aid

Since the founding of the school in 1929, St. Andrew’s has been a boarding school that meets 100% of demonstrated need. In 2020-2021, student tuition cost was $62,150 for the 2021–2022 school year, with 47% of students receiving some form of financial aid. St. Andrew's granted approximately $7.2 million in financial aid in 2022–2023, with a grant average of $49,102.[5]

History

St. Andrew's was founded in 1929 by A. Felix du Pont (1879–1948). He was a member of the du Pont family. The school was founded to provide a top education for boys of all socio-economic backgrounds, regardless of their families' ability to pay. St. Andrew's was originally a boys' school, but became coeducational in 1973.

Film appearances

The 1989 coming-of-age drama film Dead Poets Society directed by Peter Weir and starring Robin Williams and Ethan Hawke was filmed almost entirely on the school grounds.[6] The school was known as Welton Academy in the movie.

It also served as the filming location of the young President Bartlet's boarding school in the television series The West Wing episode entitled "Two Cathedrals"[7] (number 44).
