College Search and Application Process


The college search and application process is one of the most exciting and anxious times in a student’s life. Just as ÂÌñÉç faculty and coaches have nurtured students’ intellectual, physical, and moral development, the ÂÌñÉç College Counseling Office guides, supports, and serves as an advocate for our students as they consider an exciting variety of undergraduate options. Recognizing that this transition is important both for students and their families, ÂÌñÉç has college counselors who have extensive experience in both secondary education and in college admissions and have developed a program to guide, educate, and encourage students to take responsibility for meeting deadlines and making important decisions.

ÂÌñÉç students have learned to write, read, discuss, and learn at a college level. They are prepared to excel at the nation’s most selective universities, and are gaining acceptance to these institutions. ÂÌñÉç college counselors help find schools nationwide that are suited for the individual criteria of our students. Working with 25-35 students each, our counselors are able to give personalized attention in every aspect of the college preparation, search, application and decision-making process. ÂÌñÉç’s counselors visit colleges nationwide and attend the National College Admissions Conference every year. Students are motivated, interested and focused on continuing academics and opportunities at the highest level.
