Each year, Thacher welcomes representatives from outstanding colleges and universities.
In informal gatherings hosted on the patio, via Zoom, around a lunch table in the fall, and during the annual College Fair each spring, representatives talk with Thacher juniors and seniors (and occasionally the curious sophomore!) about their programs and schools. Representatives from the following colleges and universities typically include Thacher in their recruitment calendar.
