Colleges love Maybeck students.

Why? Because our graduates are prepared, mature, engaged and creative learners. 

Because Maybeck is a small school that fosters community, teachers really get to know students in depth. Their recommendation letters reflect this deep knowledge. After years of conversation within our seminar-style classrooms, travel experiences demanding maturity and responsibility, and annual camping trips (at the start and end of each school year), our teachers form deep bonds with students, both as mentors and as partners/friends/equals.

College Eligibility Requirements

Maybeck's graduation requirements exceed those of the University of California (UC) and the California State University (CSU). Students take four years of a challenging academic curriculum that prepares them for admission at institutions that best suits their academic and personal interests.
