College Counseling

Effective scheduling is key to successfully fulfilling graduation requirements and navigating the college application process. With the right guidance from our staff, students can establish a plan, stay organized, and ensure they are meeting these criteria.

Course scheduling and registration occurs school-wide, twice each academic year.

Our rigorous, college prep curriculum aims at college readiness for all graduates. Check out the courses we offer here.

Learning everything about a college allows students to gain valuable insights into their future and can greatly influence their future. We understand how important visiting a college campus is in the decision-making process. Juniors and seniors are offered the opportunity to go on college campus visits and attend college-representative-led presentations hosted on Arbor Prep's campus.

Juniors and seniors are given two excused absences each academic year to visit a college or university of their choice. To receive the excused absence, students must complete the proper forms with the school's front office two weeks before their scheduled visit. 

Juniors and seniors who wish to attend college presentations here at Arbor Prep should sign up in the College Counseling team’s office no later than the Friday before the scheduled presentation.

Official high school transcripts can be ordered securely through Parchment.

If you already have a Parchment account, you can sign in here. If you need to create an account, head to Parchment's site, search for Arbor Preparatory High School, then create your account.
