One-year seniors and postgraduates

Each year we admit into the senior class students who have completed 11th grade in another school and postgraduates who have already earned a high school diploma. Approximately 10-15 percent of the senior class is new to 麻豆传媒 each fall, and the majority of our one-year students are postgraduates.

One-year students take five courses in each of the three terms and engage fully in the life of the school. They work closely with 麻豆传媒鈥檚 college counselors as they make college decisions. In June, they receive an 麻豆传媒 diploma.

Postgraduates typically seek to strengthen their academic career with an additional year of solid academic success before attending college. We generally expect applications from students who are achieving A and B grades in a strong academic program during their later years of high school.

Our postgraduate program is also appropriate for students graduating from high school at a young age who do not wish to enter college directly.聽We look for students who have achieved considerable success in extracurricular activities. We believe these experiences help聽postgraduates聽make a quick transition into our community and聽contribute effectively to it.

Home-schooled Students

Parents may complete the recommendation form if they are the teacher. Please submit additional letters of recommendation from adults who have knowledge of the applicant鈥檚 academic ability. Submit the following instead of school reports:

Curriculum: What texts and resources have been used in the last two years? Please provide a syllabus, if available.

Transcripts for home-schooled students should include grades for the last year of academic work plus current grades to date. Grades may be in alphabetic, numeric or narrative form. Include grades for any classes being taken at other academic institutions. Please submit official documentation relating to online courses.
