Students meet with a counselor every month. During these appointments, progress towards academic goals is monitored as is progress towards standardized testing. Guided by the student’s personal career interests and educational goals, counselors work with the student to research meaningful summer experiences, internships, employment and volunteer service and the student continues to develop a comprehensive resume. In the second semester, a comprehensive search begins for colleges matching the student’s profile and the student’s and parents’ specific selection factors. This search process culminates towards the end of the junior year with a priority list of colleges. In Spring, students prepare for college visits and Juniors are strongly encouraged to attend the “Interview and College Visit Workshop”.
