International Students

 

 

Program Overview

The Mission College Prep International Program is students from outside the United States interested in a one-year to multiple-year home-stay high school program. We welcome applications from international students and value the cultural diversity and individual gifts that international students bring to the student body. We encourage students who are bright, inquisitive, imaginative and compassionate to apply.

This program is highly competitive, and we accept a limited number of students in Grades 9, 10, and 11 each year. We currently have students attending from Spain, China, South Korea, and Vietnam.

Program Details

  • One-year and multiple-year programs available.
  • Full immersion: International Students whose English level is sufficient attend classes alongside all the other students.
  • Success in our curriculum is largely dependent on the student’s ability to respond to course material in writing. While we provide Academic English Workshop courses, we do expect international students to be proficient in English speaking, reading and writing.
