College Counseling

The college admission process is an exciting time, full of responsiblities and rewards. Making plans for college involves self-discovery that helps prepare students for college and the years beyond. At Chadwick, college counselors oversee the college application process and meet with students and parents to discuss college choices, standardized testing and other related issues. The formal counseling process begins in the junior year, but students and parents are encouraged to contact the college counseling office any time questions arise. The mission of the office states:

"In addition to preparation for college, the school, through the college counseling office, guides students and families through the college admissions process by helping each student select and gain admission to a college appropriate to his or her interests and demonstrated abilities. The success of the college preparatory and counseling programs is not measured by the number of students who gain admission to a particular college or list of colleges, but by the appropriateness of each placement and the quality of the work our students do when in college."

With three experienced college counselors and an array resources, students and families can be assured that they will receive the considerable personal attention that this process deserves.
