At the Medical Sciences Semester (MSS), we believe that to prepare students for the real world, our community should mirror the real world with a diverse student body that is representative of all socio-economic backgrounds. To achieve this goal, MSS seeks to enroll the most qualified and compelling students whose families understand and embrace the Purpose, Promise, and Principles of Hawken School and MSS regardless of socio-economic background through a need-based Flexible Tuition Program.
