Not that i'm trying to make it to the olympics or anything, i'm just curious on how people get there. For example, how would a highschool student get to the US trials? (District, state, etc then what)? And how would it work for individual gymnasts not involved in college or anything, and college gymnasts?
 
First step would be attending an elite qualifier and getting the necessary score. Then I believe there is another score for qualifying to classic and nationals. From nationals to Olympic trials can vary from quad to quad but finishing in the top 10-12 all around is a safe bet and then the committee can invite others.

You would have to be working within the USAG system - qualifying elite, going to camp. The high school system does not lead to elite.
