An American-based curriculum leading to a wide choice of Advanced Placement courses or the IB Diploma at high-school level, with a Core Knowledge programme lower down. The approach is college-preparatory and internationally minded.
More than 700 day and boarding students (around 270 boarding) from some 60 nationalities, in nine campus dormitories. Italian-speaking Ticino, the lake and the Alps shape a distinctive cultural and outdoor experience.
TASIS pairs its Ticino setting with a rich travel and arts programme — Italian and European cultural trips, a strong visual and performing arts tradition — alongside sport, a range of academies and clubs, and regular weekend excursions across the region.
Selective, college-preparatory admission across a wide age range; early enquiry is recommended for boarding places.
