curriculum
We offer 150 courses and 34 subject areas for AP and Honors.
From the start, as part of our comprehensive college counseling program, you'll have a faculty advisor who will be your cheerleader and advocate. Towards the end of your sophomore year, you'll be assigned an academic advisor who will study your academic profile, engage in discussions about your interests and plans, and help you chart an academic course that will not only help you explore your passions and test your boundaries but also ensure you are well-prepared for your future through our college prep program.
Designing your academic journey
We know you have the intellectual curiosity, desire and sense of purpose to realize your potential, so we'll challenge you to think – hard – and share those thoughts with confidence, articulating clearly and writing critically.

Course Offerings
The Signature Experience at Peddie
Sometimes your passions are greater than a classroom can contain. The Signature Experience at Peddie allows you to use the world as your classroom for independent, original work in collaboration with faculty mentors. You can work with experts in your chosen field and then return to campus to share your own newfound expertise with the Peddie community.
A successful educational journey is not just about being able to recite the correct answers. It's about being able to think about what is being studied in a critical and careful way, and even more, to develop one's own voice to learn and express it with confidence. We have learned this at Peddie. Pras Hongladaromp '02
