The numbers that
define a Woodlawn education.
The data below reflects Woodlawn’s current enrollment and college outcome record, current as of the 2025-26 academic year.
An unweighted scale.
No class ranking.
Woodlawn uses an unweighted 4.0 GPA scale. Grades are not weighted for AP or honors coursework, and Woodlawn does not rank students. The school profile and letter of recommendation provide the context admissions offices need to evaluate a ‘Blazer’s record in full.
Because every full-year Upper School course is offered at honors or AP level, the transcript draws no distinction between a “standard” and an “advanced” course. Every full-year course a ‘Blazer takes is already at that level.

Letter Grade Scale
What every ‘Blazer
completes before graduation.
Graduation requires a minimum of 23 credits; most students accumulate 27–28. All full-year, one-credit courses are offered at the honors or Advanced Placement level. Woodlawn’s Signature Experiences are also required of every graduate: Humanities + Renaissance Workshops, Foundations + Futures with Discovery Courses, and the Senior Capstone. Full-time enrollment is a minimum of six courses each trimester, with no more than two open or study hall periods. Students in grades 11 and 12 are encouraged to pursue place-based learning: off-campus internships, externships, co-ops, assistantships, and independent studies.
Every full-year course
offered at AP or honors level.
Woodlawn currently offers the following AP courses. Since 2010, Woodlawn students have taken 887 AP exams; 70% have scored 3, 4, or 5.
Advanced courses in English, history, and science for grades 11 and 12 are offered on a rotating basis. Additional AP and honors electives vary by year and student interest. Students may also access specialized coursework through Woodlawn’s membership in Global Online Academy (GOA).
We look forward to
welcoming you to campus.

“Woodlawn encouraged us to experiment, evolve, and grow. We are artists, scholars, athletes, and so much more. My years here changed me in ways I never thought they would.”Sydney B. '14, Fulbright Scholar, Woodlawn School
