About
Rutgers Preparatory School has a long tradition of welcoming International Students to our school community. It is very usual to see students from many countries enrolled in our Lower, Middle or Upper Schools, and because of the significant range of cultural, religious and geographic diversity that exists on campus, International Students are comfortable as students here.
Rutgers Prep has been welcoming international students for over 100 years. A recent survey of Rutgers Prep parents and students found 46 languages spoken at home and 50 countries of birth for current families. This global diversity is at the heart of the equity experienced on campus every day.
All of our students find great success in the classroom, in the arts, in athletics, and in community activities. Moreover, all of our students learn from their peers about the leadership roles each of us can assume in a world that is based on globalization and interdependence.
