Optically accessible quantum memories are fundamental for implementations of quantum networks as they facilitate the synchronization required for schemes of long-distance quantum information exchange. In order to use GaAs quantum dots, which so far has proven to be bright on-demand sources of entangled photon pairs, deterministic preparation of specific spin states is necessary. We present a comprehensive study on heralded spin preparation employing excited state resonances of droplet etched GaAs quantum dots. By observation of excitation spectra for a range of fundamental excitonic transitions the properties of different quantum dot energy levels, i.e. shells, are revealed. The innovative use of polarization-resolved excitation and detection in the context of quasi-resonant excitation spectroscopy of quantum dots greatly simplifies the determination of the spin preparation fidelities. By employing this method, spin preparation fidelities of quantum dot ground states of up to 85 % are found.
