Penisula Academy College Acceptance Update
Fall 2025
We are proud to share the exceptional results from the 2024–2025 college admissions cycle. This year, our team worked closely with 18 students representing a wide range of academic and socioeconomic backgrounds, with unweighted GPAs ranging from 2.9 to 4.0. Every student earned at least one college admission.
​
An impressive 86% were accepted to one of their top three choices. Thirty-six percent were admitted to Ivy League schools, 57% to Top 20 colleges and universities, 79% to Top 30, and 86% to Top 50 institutions. More than one-third of our students received merit-based scholarships, a reflection of both their academic strength and personal achievements.
This year’s standout acceptances include Stanford (4), Yale (1), Princeton (2), Caltech (1), Columbia (1), Brown (1), Cornell (2), Johns Hopkins (2), Northwestern (1), Vanderbilt (1), Carnegie Mellon (2), Williams (1), Amherst (1), USC (2), Georgetown (1), UC Berkeley (2), UCLA (2), among many others.
We are deeply honored to have guided these students and their families through this journey, and we celebrate their hard work, determination, and growth.
