Perrantes attended Crespi Carmelite High School, where he was coached by Russell White. Perrantes developed his signature calm, deliberate playing style after competing against older players.

When Bennett was hired by Virginia, Perrantes committed to play for him, turning down an offer from USC after Kevin O'Neill was released as coach. [1] As a senior, he averaged 19.9 points and 5.8 assists per game and was named L.A. Daily News Player of the Year and L.A. Times All-Area First Team.

[7] He hit a career-high seven three-pointers to go along with 22 points in a loss to Virginia Tech on January 4, 2016. [8] Perrantes scored 16 points with four 3-pointers in a 73–65 win against Syracuse on January 24.

He was named honorable mention All-ACC by the media and coaches. [2] "He just stirred the pot," coach Bennett said of Perrantes in 2016. "He made everything kind of work out. He got guys the ball. He understood it." [1]
