Very few. GP students are very happy at the school.
But there have been some athletes transfer in. |

Prep puts a lot of effort into “building a class” starting with deciding who to admit as freshman. This is emphasized in freshman year and then beyond.
Adding transfer students doesn’t make this easier. So the bias is against adding them. |

That is correct. DS goes there and I’ve seen a few transfers every year. Usually families who recently moved into town or athletes. |

| There may be one or two more openings in the dorm for domestic students as some of the foreign students are finding it harder to get visas to study in the States. |

But a completely different crowd and experience. Not to everyone’s taste. |
