Once you submit your application you will receive an email with instructions to schedule a student interview via Zoom. Alternatively, students may submit a short video including a personal introduction of themselves and detailing their interests. If students choose to submit a video, please feel free to let creativity shine! Submit videos to admissions@tampaprep.org.
