Does going to a charter school affect college admission at all? This is an often asked question by parents. The answer is simple: Yes, it does.
Colleges look at a student's performance during high school. Many charter schools are above and beyond most public schools in academic excellence as well as in the arts and other activities. Students who wish to attend college after graduation from a charter school have a great chance if they have maintained good grades and participated in activities that furthered their leadership and/or service skills.
Academic excellence is often found in charter schools due to better funding and a demand for excellence that many public schools do not have. Experience in the arts or in various activities is also something charter schools are known for promoting. Colleges welcome students who are well-rounded, having done well in academics, explored some arts and participated in skill building activities.
