The Baret Scholars is a selective
program. Our application seeks
to uncover your talents,
ambitions, and desire to be a
Baret Scholar.

What makes a
Baret Scholar?

There is no one mold for a Baret Scholar. We are looking for
independent and dynamic students of the world seeking their best
year yet. All of our scholars demonstrate a deep sense of curiosity
and care — both for themselves and the people around them.

Our applications for 2025-26 are open. Please click here to apply

Our applications are open

We are currently accepting applications for Baret's journey beginning in September 2025-26. Students who are considering a gap year between high school and university as well as those currently enrolled in university who are seeking a meaningful year away from campus are eligible for the Baret Scholars program.

Note: Students can still apply for our merit-based scholarships; however, we are not currently accepting need-based financial aid applications. We accepted need-based financial aid applicants in our early rounds of admission.
