The college application process is about finding a college where you will flourish and excel. This requires you to assess your goals and then investigate colleges and universities to see which institutions will best meet your individual criteria. Everything must be considered— educational offerings, size, geographic location, financial assistance, co-curricular opportunities and social and athletic programs.

From your sophomore through your senior year, our Director of College Counseling guides you and your family through this complex process as applications are filed, admissions decisions are received from colleges and colleges or universities are chosen.
