Student Life

Life on campus has its own rhythm, whether you’re a day student or a boarding student. Where your courses leave off, campus life begins.

You’ll have access to the amenities that come with living in a small town, and room to explore a campus that won’t quiet down just because classes are out for the day. Boarding and day students alike have the space—and the time—to pursue passions alongside assigned material.

At Choate, you’ll find shared experiences and traditions that shape character, build cohesion, generate school spirit, and foster lifelong connections.

As a freshman, I was able to gain time management skills early on due to things such as study hours and lights out. I was able to acquire a steady daily schedule, easily adjust to the fast-paced life at Choate, and balance my academics, athletics, and extracurricular activities. I balance my academics and social life at Choate by participating in clubs, events, and gatherings with friends, while continuing to focus on my studies.” —Amanda Benneh '24 (alumni)
