• Athletic Scholarships

  Hamden Hall enjoys a reputation as one of the most competitive and successful small prep schools in New England, having won a significant number of league titles as well as multiple New England Championships. Each year, about 10 percent of our senior class goes on to play sports in college at the Division I, II, and III levels. Moreover, we have several outstanding professional athletes among our prestigious alumni. Our 30-acre Skiff Street Athletic Complex lends itself to competitive distinction with its multiple fields - including our multi-sport synthetic turf field - tennis courts, and the 65,000-square-foot Beckerman Athletic Center. Known as the BAC, the premier facility boasts a pool, three college-length basketball courts, an elevated jogging track, fitness center, multipurpose aerobics room, locker rooms, student lounge, and study center. Being able to offer talented athletes tuition support is an invaluable tool for Hamden Hall.

  The visual and performing arts are integral components of a Hamden Hall education as we weave our students’ artistic visions and talents into daily campus life. Hamden Hall has an awardwinning choral and instrumental program that consistently garners state and national recognition, including record-breaking numbers for the past four years of the number of students selected to the prestigious Connecticut Music Educators Southern Regional Honor Choir and Orchestra. Our theatre program is vibrant with annual musicals, student- and faculty-authored plays, and other dynamic undertakings in our Taylor Performing Arts Center. Classes in theatre education and performance begin in our Lower School and continue through Middle and Upper School and often include offcampus shows and workshop opportunities. Our students also have the opportunity to attend regional and national theatre festivals.
