Outcomes & Matriculations

When you get to Cate that first week, take a look at the students around you.

Chances are you’ll know them for your whole life, staying in touch as the years march on. But first you’ll get to know them here. They, along with teachers, coaches, and advisors will help you grow and learn who you are. So when it’s time for college, the transition will make sense and feel natural.

Cate students head off to great colleges and universities around the world and feel prepared when they get there. Because they’ve learned to study, manage their time, and juggle their responsibilities here, taking on an Ivy League curriculum or the demands of a big university are pretty do-able.

Alumni return to the Mesa from Pomona and Princeton, MIT and Macalester College, or Stanford and Swarthmore to tell us what we’re doing right – giving them the foundation they need not just for college, but for life. While they’re here they visit their former teachers and trade stories, because that best day of school really never ends.

When it’s time for college, the transition will not only make sense — it will feel natural.
