The Boys' Latin School Of Maryland

Boys’ Latin describes its teaching philosophy as student-centered and specifically designed around how boys learn best, using hands-on, experiential learning that emphasizes action, movement, exploration, and active engagement. The school says its intentionally small all-boys environment lets teachers build strong personal relationships, tailor instruction to each student’s interests and motivations, and combine academic rigor with character formation rooted in courage, compassion, and integrity.

Boys' Latin asks families to start by inquiring or visiting and then submit the BL application through its online portal; upper- and middle-school applicants can schedule a shadow day plus a parent/student interview, while lower-school families arrange tours, shadow days, and testing with the lower-school admissions office. (boyslatinmd.com) Requirements vary by division: upper school requires current and prior report cards, English and math teacher referrals, admissions testing (ISEE, SSAT, PSAT, or HSPT), and a student essay; middle school requires similar records plus ISEE or other recent standardized testing; lower school requires report cards, a teacher referral, and either an Early Readiness Assessment (K-2) or testing/results such as MCAP, MAP, ERB, or on-campus OLSAT/Stanford/writing sample options for grades 2-5. (boyslatinmd.com) The official Apply page lists these key dates: for day students, application by December 15, financial aid by January 15, notification on February 20, and response by March 7; for boarding students, application by January 15, financial aid by February 1, notification by March 10, and response by April 10. (boyslatinmd.com) For financial aid, families indicate interest on the admissions application and complete the Clarity Application. (boyslatinmd.com) I did not find a published waitlist policy or any stated admissions priority/preference categories on the admissions pages I reviewed, and the lower-school section appears to include older dates (for example, January 2025), so families should confirm current-cycle details directly with the admissions office.
