NCA offers a wide range of college and career guidance. Over 45% of students in grade 5-8 qualify for the Johns Hopkins University Center for Talented Youth program. In High School, pre and post PSAT presentations are offered to all students in an effort to prepare them for the test and explain the test results in easy to understand terms. SAT preparation classes are offered, and career testing can also be taken advantage of. Local college fair dates are scheduled and often a group trip to a Christian college is planned each year. One on one counseling is available, and individual meetings with Junior’s are held guiding them through the process.
