HOW IT WORKS

No matter where you come from, college is within your reach! We work with participating high schools to review your GPA and high school courses required for guaranteed admissions and share this information with WAGAP-participating universities. If you’re a 12th grader from a participating school and meet the guaranteed admission requirements, you’ll claim your spot at those universities when you apply. If you’re an 11th grader, you’ll receive a checklist to guide you through this process and help you get ready.

Eligibility
