Admissions

 

Hill Country College Preparatory High School is a P-TECH (Pathways in Technology Early College High School) giving students the opportunity to receive both a high school diploma and an Associate of Science degree with an Industry Based Certification. The hallmark of the P-TECH model is its career focus and the provision of work-based learning.

 

Students will take dual credit courses through a partnership with Northeast Lakeview College in San Antonio. They also have the opportunity to earn industry-based certifications which will prepare them for careers right out of high school. All of this is at no cost for tuition or textbooks.

 

Hill Country College Prep is also home to a state qualifying robotics team, nationally ranked CyberPatriot team, competitive Esports teams and much more for which students can get involved. With a brand new location and state-of-the-art facilities, HCCPHS is an impressive place for all students to grow!

 

STEP 1️⃣:  Complete the online application and submit on time by midnight on February 28, 2025. This is entrance for the student into the lottery draw process, if one is needed. Applications submitted after the due date will be added to the end of the list/waitlist in the order received. Again, in-district students will get priority above out-of-district students, even if timestamp is earlier.

STEP 2️⃣: All students (including family members) who have applied and ​are selected for an available seat for the incoming freshman class, will participate in an in-person interview with the Staff and Administration. Letters for these interviews will be mailed out the week of March 10, 2025 and interviews will take place between March 24th and April 17th.

STEP 3️⃣: Review, acknowledge, and submit the Commitment Acknowledgement by April 25, 2025 by midnight.

Upon completion of all steps during the enrollment process and a commitment decision from the family and student, a letter of confirmation will be mailed out the week of April 25, 2025. Students who did not get selected in the first group of available seats using the lottery draw, if one is needed, will receive a letter of notification and be put on a waiting list. Should openings become available, students will be notified in ​the order the student's name was drawn in the lottery and be ​provided next steps in their enrollment process. We will continue to pull from the waitlist as openings become available until August 15, 2025.
