Pillsbury College Prep provides English as a Second Language to its international boarding school student population to help ensure the best possible transition and learning experience. International students can board at Pillsbury College Prep from grades 6 – 12. International students are only allowed by the federal government to attend one year at a public high school. The remaining years, the international student can participate in our private school study options. Students can also board at PCP for the first two years of college while they are attending Riverland Community College/Mankato State University.
International boarding school students may attend Pillsbury College Prep for ESL and academic classes. Students can complete U.S required credits during the summer or the school year to receive a dual diploma, one from their home country and one from our American school.
