List of Nobel laureates by secondary school affiliation

Last updated

The following is a list of Nobel Prize laureates by secondary school affiliation. To be listed, a high school must have at least one Nobel Prize laureate among its alumni. The list is highly biased, omitting for example all German laureats, of which there are many.

(Note: this list is very incomplete, especially for the many high schools that have one alumnus or alumna who is a Nobel Prize winner.)
