Ready, SET, College

Welcome to Ready, SET, College

We are here to coach, guide, advocate, and catalyze the college planning process on an individualized basis, leaving behind the one-size-fits-all approach. 

Dual Enrollment

We believe that getting ready for college is a four-year process that begins in 9th grade and is reinforced all the way through graduation. SET empowers students with a wide range of course selections in addition to having the opportunity to take college level classes through our partnership with Mesa College.

Block Scheduling

SET intentionally has a block schedule that mirrors a university schedule: short duration and high-intensity pacing. We pride ourselve in striking the balance between active engagement, taking practice entrance exams, and listening to teacher lectures.

Passion Projects

At SET, passion projects and active engagement make it easy for students to stand out on applications, while we help them shape their unique identity and find the university where they will thrive.

How We Help

  • Research college options
  • Guidance on the completion and submission of applications and financial forms.
  • By having 10th graders take the PSAT for free, it’s a great opportunity for getting used to taking college entrance exams. 

SET’s aim is to help students grow and flourish beyond their life in high school. For many, that means admission to a highly competitive university, a music conservatory, or a college for the visual and performing arts. Whatever the destination, SET students have our promise to maximize their potential.
