Frequently asked questions
We have no formal dress code. You can wear whatever best expresses your personality. Remember, though, that EF Academy students come from a broad range of cultures and backgrounds, so you should always dress in a way that doesn’t cause discomfort to others.
Though not mandatory, we strongly encourage students to join co-curricular program like clubs and intramural sports, as well as excursions and events organized by our activities team. Exploring a mutual interest is the easiest way to make friends quickly. We typically schedule the last hour of the school day for co-curricular activities.
Absolutely! We have varsity sports across the whole year where students can compete in our local league. We also encourage students to try new sports by joining one or more of our seasonal intramural teams: basketball, soccer, volleyball, running, swimming, table tennis or cheerleading. It’s a great way to make new friends and develop your teamwork and leadership skills. Pasadena’s year-round mild weather, and proximity to both the sea and mountains, also makes it easy to practice individual performance sports like surfing, cycling, running or hiking or golf year-round.
Many of the clubs offered on-campus are driven by student interest, so the themes range widely from the arts and hobbies to STEAM and student government. What you do as a member depends on the theme. If you join the Outdoor Adventure Club, for example, you’ll go on hikes in the surrounding canyons. If you join our Campus Celebrations Club, you’ll help plan events like our annual Culture Fair and prom.
We always encourage you to explore activities you wouldn't normally try to discover new interests. You just never know. But if you're passionate about something in particular that isn’t currently offered, speak with our activities team to start your own club!
