We require that all prospective students visit the Academy for an evaluation week. During that one week prospective boarders must stay in the dormitory.  Throughout your evaluation week, you will have the opportunity to acquaint yourself with our environment by meeting our coaches and staff, participating in the tennis program, and visit the academic schools of interest. This experience will allow you to get a feel for the type of training Academy students receive.  It will also give you an understanding of the lifestyle of the students at the Academy. Please note, boarding students are not permitted to have a vehicle on site while enrolled in any of our boarding programs.
