Welcome to the Gateway to Prep Schools!

The Gateway is an online application system created by schools to help admission candidates and their families navigate their way through the application process. Through the Gateway you may research particular schools or gain an overview of wider topics such as the benefits of an independent school education. As you focus your search, use the Gateway to inform schools of your interest in them. You can access, organize and prepare applications to multiple schools all through the Gateway website. Use the Gateway to Prep Schools as a compass to chart your course to a great education. About Gateway
