College Planning
College Planning
The college search is an educational process: a journey of self-discovery full of challenges, rewards, and responsibilities. During your time at Pacific Coast Christian Prep, you'll work closely with your parents and our administration to decide which college or university is the best match for you.
Pacific Coast Christian Prep intentionally calls itself a 'college prep' school due to our commitment to prepare our student body for success at a college or university upon graduation. Our goal is that over 90% of our graduating students matriculate to some of the best colleges around the country. Additionally, in an effort to best prepare our student body for life after graduation, PCCPrep offers a multitued of courses, taught by our highly trained faculty, that are available for concurrent college credits.
The administration office coordinates programs appropriate for all high school students and their parents. Gail Andujo, Director of Academics, has over 18 years of experience and is available to answer questions and provide assistance. She can be reached at Gail.Andujo@pccprep.org.
