University School is an all boy's college preparatory school for grades Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12 on two campuses in suburban Cleveland, Ohio: Grades Jr.K through 8 on a 32-acre campus in historic Shaker Heights; and Grades 9 through 12 on a 221-acre wooded campus in Hunting Valley. 840 boys are enrolled selectively from the diverse population of Greater Cleveland. University School is a place where each boy is inspired and empowered to let his true self thrive.
The School’s mission is to inspire boys of promise to become young men of character who lead and serve. Dedicated faculty, rigorous curriculum, and experiential programs foster intellectual, physical, creative, and moral excellence. We believe these goals are best achieved in a diverse community where tradition is valued and where every boy is known and loved.
