"The great North American school of magic was founded in the seventeenth century. It stands at the highest peak of Mount Greylock, where it is concealed from non-magic gaze by a variety of powerful enchantments, which sometimes manifest in a wreath of misty cloud." -J.K. Rowling Pottormore

The Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a school for gifted magic students found in the Berkshires of Western Massachusetts on the peak of Mount Greylock. It accepts students all from across North America, the school much like Hogwarts is divided into four houses:

• Horned Serpent is sometimes considered to represent the mind of a witch or wizard. It is also said that Horned Serpent favors scholars.

• Wampus is sometimes considered to represent the body of a witch or wizard. It is also said that Wampus favors warriors.

• Thunderbird is sometimes considered to represent the soul of a witch or wizard. It is also said that Thunderbird favors adventurers.

• Pukwudgie is sometimes considered to represent the heart of a witch or wizard. It is also said that Pukwudgie favors healers.

When a student starts their education at Ilvermorny, they step onto a Gordian Knot on the floor in the centre of the entrance hall with large wooden statues of the mascots for the four houses facing them. The carved statues react if they want the student in their house. The older students watch in silence from a circular balcony on a floor above them as the new students are sorted. For Horned Serpent, the crystal in the carving's forehead glows. For Wampus, the carving roars. For Thunderbird, the carving beats its wings. And for Pukwudgie, the carving raises its arrow.

However, sometimes more than one carving will try to select the same student and so the student is then able to choose the house they prefer. This happens very rarely. Sometimes - as rare as once a decade or even a generation as in the case of one student - a student will be selected by every house. After the sorting, the student is brought to a large hall where they are chosen once more, this time by a wand.
