Just wondering if anyone knows boarding schools in the states with no (or minimal) dress code, except for formal situations. I really don’t want to rebuild my entire closet just to attend a school, and what I wear is a big part of my identity. As long as the school allows jeans, cargo pants, T-shirts (including band shirts), and jackets with hoods, I’m completely fine. Any recommendations are appreciated.
Tons of schools do not have dress codes, or minimal at the least, but it sounds like you need to think about why you want to go to BS. As you may be missing the bigger picture.

I think most have some rules around what’s acceptable (no swimsuits in class, shirts and shoes required) –and many would allow the wardrobe you have described. George would be in this group.
Why not look at the IG pages of the schools you’re considering?
First seek out schools that are good fits for you academically, socially, financially, etc. – then research the dress codes at those schools.
