College Counseling
Our college counselors have more than 20 years of experience working with students and families on the college application and decision-making process.
In 9th grade, Priory’s college counselors offer group presentations to students and parents, and in 10th grade they begin working with students in a small classroom setting to guide them as they approach the college process.
By junior year, our college counselors have met with each student and parent at least once to discuss the student’s college plans.
Each year more than 100 colleges and universities visit Priory to speak with our students, and we organize regular programming designed to encourage students to think about majors and careers.The Priory College Counseling office provides the highest level of support to families during this important time. Expert advocacy combined with our amazing students yields outstanding results.
