At the Gary Gilchrist Junior Golf Academy, we are as committed to providing excellent academics as we are to golf. We are proud to offer our enrolling students two exceptional education options:



Montverde Academy features a gorgeous 125 acre campus in central Florida. Majestic oaks, beautiful Lake Florence and a 28 million dollar, Spanish style facility set the campus apart from any other. More than 90% of the faculty hold advanced degrees and possess a minimum of 10 years of teaching experience. Caring, nurturing and finely trained, the faculty are equipped to provide an unparalleled education. Montverde Academy has a fully networked campus via a fiber optic infrastructure and provides students with access to an advanced automated library and various periodical databases for research and learning development. Through advanced technology, parents are also provided with 24 hour access from their home or office to a service that keeps them apprised of student academic progress.

iCademy

The iCademy provides students a modern, flexible educational option with teacher-directed, online courses. GGGA students attend class each morning in our own academy classroom facilitated by a full-time educational coordinator. iCademy employs fully-credentialed teachers to execute a rigorous, college prep online education that ensures academic support and mastery of subject content. Students participate in video conferencing with live instructional sessions as well as online lessons, assessments, group work and research.

In addition to their online education, students at the CA academy will participate in cultural and educational field trips to enhance their studies and provide hands-on experiences with course content. GGGA California's Director of Operations, Patty Clarkson, has over 20 years of experience in educational development and leads our West Coast educational intiatives.

Visa Requirements

All international students wishing to enroll in any of these academic programs are required to obtain an F-1 Student Visa in order to be authorized to attend classes in the U.S.

The process for obtaining the visa is as follows:

1. The school that the student has chosen to attend will issue an I-20 form. This form will be sent to the student in order to be able to request      the F-1 Student Visa in the appropriate U.S. Consulate or Embassy.
2. The student will need to contact the U.S. Consulate or U.S. Embassy operating in his/her country to set an appointment to apply for the      student visa. He/She should ask what supporting documents are needed.
3. The student must pay the SEVIS I-901 fee; this can be done online at www.fmjfee.com and must be paid prior to the Consulate/Embassy      appointment.
4. When the student travels to or from the United States he/she will be required to show his/her passport and I-20/F-1 visa. The student must     keep both these documents with him/her at all times.
