History

For 206 years, Wilbraham & Monson Academy (WMA) has been a step ahead; we stretch beyond the norm, beyond the expected. From the enrollment of our first international students in the early 1800s to our current Center for Entrepreneurial & Global Studies and Bicentennial Scholars Program, WMA has always recognized the importance of providing students with a broad and diverse global perspective, while keeping tradition alive. Today, approximately 425 students from around the world live and learn on our 300-acre campus.

Considering Financial Aid?

Schools administer their financial aid individually. The keys to seeking financial aid are:

  1. Planning, including dedicating time to sit-down and work through the paperwork and process
  2. Communicating with the admission and financial aid officers at the school
  3. Completing the paperwork and forms early and accurately (forms and paperwork can differ between schools)
  4. Meeting the financial aid deadline (it's early).
