Hello Parents of Boarding Students,
Each year, Phillips Academy partners with Collegeboxes to provide a solution for boarders who need to store their items over the summer. Collegeboxes will pick up items, place them in storage, and deliver them to your child’s 2026-2027 dorm room just before the start of the school year. Deliveries to college or the student’s home are also possible. There are costs associated with this service.
NOTE: Student belongings cannot remain on campus over the summer.
