I played sports in high school until injury took me out, and I was never considered anything close to a nerd in school. The atmosphere has a bit of a dorkiness to it more than a traditional nerdiness, if adults here can understand that distinction. Certain dorms are known for having the very old school typical UChicago kids (Snell-Hitchcock), so it’s best for social students to apply for one of the more social dorms (Shoreland, Max, Pierce).

Adigal, your son sounds like a perfect fit here. The school runs from late September through early June. There are three, 10 week quarters with an 11th week for finals. Some students take classes during the summer, and they are offered, but the main quarters are fall, winter, spring.
