Hi, another Exeter student here. Congratulations on your daughter’s acceptance! Each class is 50-60 minutes, depending on the block. Students generally have 4-5 academic classes per day. Some classes will meet on a ‘reserve’ format, meaning that they meet one extra block per week. Universal free periods are usually around 40 minutes long, although some are longer/shorter, and lunch is 50 minutes. A form of athletic activity or theater is required for most terms here - many students will take a PE class that meets thrice a week while others will play an interscholastic sport. Saturday classes are extremely rare and short, only occurring when weekday classes are not held. The administrative body seems to be phasing these classes out. Sociality between day and boarding students varies, but many day students participate in all social activities except those late at night. Day students have a dedicated room with lockers to socialize, but are also affiliated with dorms (which they are allowed to sleep over at). I’m focused on humanities myself, and have found that Exeter’s humanities courses are challenging and well built. The English curriculum is slightly constraining, as students aren’t allowed to choose their English course until their senior winter, but I still highly recommend Exeter for humanities. We have some pretty outstanding teachers, and Harkness is an amazing tool for learning.
