GSE  School-level responsibilities 

In 2019, an effort is made to contact all eligible students regarding the Governor's School of Entrepreneurship. Counselors should receive an email message from Sherry Keffer asking that they follow new recruiting procedures.

More specifically, counselors are asked to do the following:

1. Forward the letter sent to you via email attachment to all 9th, 10th, and 11th-grade students.
2. Guide career-minded students to apply to the School of Entrepreneurship. Professionals should see themselves as door openers and not gate keepers. Inform all students. Let them decide for themselves whether to apply;
3. The counselor provides a signed  official transcript with the attendance record. Please redact Social Security numbers.
4. There is not a GPA requirement; however, students requesting college credit must meet university standards.
5. The principal or assistant principal writes a brief recommendation.
6. Mailing the application is the responsibility of the student, not the school.

Parent Information

Attending GSE requires commitment on the part of the student and his/her whole family.  The school lasts three weeks, and there are no leaves granted for vacations, family weddings, etc. There will be time each day, usually in the evening,  for you and your child to talk on the phone or to communicate electronically.
