When it comes time to apply for college, how are Bridges Academy students evaluated?
Graduation requirements for Bridges Academy exceed the entry requirements for the University of California. In addition to our accreditation by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges and the California Association of Independent Schools, all of our academic courses are specifically approved by the University of California. Private colleges evaluate Bridges Academy students in the same way they do students from other accredited schools: through grades, test scores, teacher recommendations, student essays, and student interviews. Students are assisted in the college application process by our director of college guidance, college counselor and senior faculty.
