9th Grade College Preparation

Investing your time

Get involved in activities. Freshman year is a great time to try a lot of things. Seek out leadership roles.
Take the opportunity to visit a college campus during vacations and travel.

Academics

Colleges do look at ninth grade curriculum and grades. Cultivate good study habits now. If you are struggling in a class, seek out the help of your teachers and advisors.

Although Westminster calculates your grade point average on a 100-point scale, the University of Georgia system (UGA, Georgia Tech, Georgia State, Georgia Southern, etc) and the HOPE scholarship calculate your grades on a 4.0 scale.
