Exeter Tardies

Prep School Admissions
1

Hello all,

I am looking to apply for Exeter soon, and I know they check how many days you were tardy. I was tardy 1 day each year from 6th to 8th grade. Is this alright? How many tardies is too much?

And I have been absent about 10 days each year for the National History Bee and a religious trip. Is this alright? Will they ask me to explain this?

No, none of this will be a problem at all!

No absolutely not. My son had missed 10 days of school due to sports in 8th grade and he was admitted
