About ASU Prep
History
Founded in 2008, ASU Preparatory Academy originally operated as University Public Schools, Inc. (UPSI), which opened its first campus in Mesa, Arizona. ASU Prep opened its Downtown Phoenix location just one year later, in partnership with the Phoenix Elementary School District, and transitioned its Mesa location to ASU’s Polytechnic campus that same year. In 2016, a third location opened in Casa Grande, Arizona, in partnership with Barça Academy.
