Is this a difficult adjustment?

It depends on the student. The one thing that IMSA does is have sophomores stay on campus for the first couple of weeks of the school year so they can adjust to IMSA and have a chance to meet others.

Are there vetted RAs in the living quarters?

There are RCs (Residential Counselors) in each building that are adults.

They live on campus in the residential halls.

Are there ways parents of students who reside several hours away can become involved?

Yes, there are many ways for parents who live far away, especially in the PAC. That is one of our main goals is to keep parents connected, no matter how far they live.

Are regions divided by counties?

This is how the regions are divided up: https://www.imsa.edu/student-life/parents-association-council/pac-geographical-regions-of-imsa-students/

Thank you

Are courses offered at IMSA are equivalent to Honors OR AP courses that are offered at home school or different?

Courses at IMSA are considered advanced/honors equivalent or beyond. AP courses are not offered at IMSA, but students are able to sign up and take AP tests at IMSA. Academic supports are available for students as they prepare for an AP exam.

For families that live nearby, can students be checked out for private music lessons or activities during the week? Or is it disruptive and better left for the weekend?

Thank you

Can we get some information about costs? Or is there a place I can find that information?

Fees are based on a sliding scale based on family income. Students will never be turned away for inability to pay.
