  • Where graduates go: #5 feeder school to Wake Forest University; top 10 for Duke and WashU. The Pingry School's own list (2022-2025), enrolled: Wake Forest University (20), Duke (16), Cornell (15), WashU (15), Boston College (14). Feeder standing: #5 Wake Forest University, #6 Duke, #10 WashU.
  • Worth asking admissions: the school profile. Reach doesn't yet show this school's SAT/ACT or AP results. Every private school produces a counselor's "school profile" for colleges, and most post it online — ask admissions for it. How a school answers says as much as the numbers.
