College and Career Planning

We believe high school is a wonderful time to explore different possibilities! In addition to helping you plan your academic experience at the Academy, your faculty mentor will help point you toward apprenticeships, internships, programs, and other opportunities that mesh with your educational goals and interests. If you’re interested in college, we’ll help you navigate the process, from preparing for standardized tests to writing application essays and everything in between. College is just one post-high school option, though, so your mentor can also help you plan a meaningful gap year, prepare to start a business, or enter the workforce. Ideally, each student will graduate the Academy with some hands-on experience in your field of interest and a professional resume, as well as an academic transcript.
