Studies are multi-disciplinary with technology integrated throughout each program. Students are afforded the opportunity to earn college credits through the Middlesex County College High School Scholars program. All students who apply participate in a selective admissions process. The process considers middle school grades, standardized test scores, and MCASMET developed assessment in language arts and mathematics.

The number of applicants to the Academy has increased each year since the school’s inception in September 2000, and each subsequent year reflects a strong competition for a very limited number of seats.
