Success For Each Student
In the same spirit that drives our personalized learning approach, our college advising is customized for each unique student at North Broward Preparatory School.
Regularly scheduled meetings with the students as well as their parents serve to initiate the right conversation with critically important questions that help determine the colleges that are right for each student.
College Advising hosts informational meetings for parents throughout the school year, and offers students the opportunity to meet college admission representatives on our campus.
