Applicant guide

As with all other applicants to Dartmouth, home-schooled students should apply using the Common App. Standardized testing is a required element of Dartmouth's undergraduate application. We ask your home school supervisor to submit additional information on curriculum, grading scale, and evaluation. Dartmouth receives many applications from home school students, and our holistic review process means we consider each applicant within the context of their educational environment, community, and opportunities.

Home school students can demonstrate language proficiency by submitting your score from either an SAT Subject Test or an AP exam.

Letters of Recommendation We encourage you to request teacher recommendations from instructors, tutors, or academic mentors who are not family members. If you have not worked directly with individuals outside your home, a brief statement from your home school supervisor will be accepted.
