Bi-Weekly Meetings
During senior year, the college counselors meet with the entire class on a bi-weekly basis to co-teach a seminar on all aspects of the college admission process.
Topics such as interviews, applications, essays, financial aid, scholarship searches and question and answer sessions are all discussed. As the process unfolds, this advising time allows for constant monitoring of deadlines and requirements, as well as complete access to the college counselors for their immediate feedback. It also gives the seniors a chance to connect as a class and feel support amongst their peers as they proceed through the application requirements.
