At the Upward Christian Prep School, we prepare students for tertiary level studies.
While athletic success is essential, your academic performance is equally critical for long- term success. We offer a Certified University Preparation Course that focuses on developing critical study habits and academic skills to maintain eligibility and the commitment required in a collegiate setting. With designated study periods and onsite support, you’ll be equipped to meet the educational demands of being a student-athlete. With the help of guest speakers, our weekly ‘Brighter Futures’ workshops and seminars focus on personal development, teaching you time management, leadership, teamwork, and goal-setting skills—essential for success in sports and life.
The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association), NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) and NCCAA (National Christian Collegiate Athletic Association) all have academic eligibility requirements designed to ensure that student-athletes maintain a commitment to both their education and their sport. To be eligible, prospective student-athletes must possess a high school diploma or equivalent, and meet several criteria, primarily focusing on their academic performance in high school. The Upward Christian Prep School has qualified career counsellors to assist with this process.
