PLEASE NOTE: There are 198 boarding schools in the United States and only a subset will entertain an application of a student who successfully completed a treatment program, wilderness therapy program, intervention, or transition program. This cohort of schools have these similarities:

1. Smaller student populations
2. Deliberate advisor/advisee relationships
3. Intentional at creating their community
4. Clinician(s) on campus or connected through the school
5. Targeted admissions criteria like a specific diagnosis (autism, anxiety/depression, gaming addiction, or recovery options)
6. Academic and/or counselors to assist incoming and existing community members through learning or emotional weaknesses

The boarding schools that advertise above are specialized. Review the Boarding Schools filter in the blog for more information.
