Introduction to the College Office

It's hard to believe how quickly the year is going by! Last week, before all of the snow, I had my college meeting with my college advisor, Mr. Doyle. There are three full time college counselors at the SSSAS upper school, each one taking a third of the alphabet. During junior and senior year, the college office are a huge help in navigating the crazy college process.

The first introduction we have to the office are meetings during junior year to help us begin thinking about and preparing for college. During these meetings, we discuss what classes we are thinking of taking senior year, when to take the SAT or ACT, and much more. Although I thought my meeting was going to overwhelm me immensely, Mr. Doyle explained everything clearly, set a timeline for many of my upcoming deadlines, and helped answer many of the questions I had. I'm so glad we have someone here to help during such an intimidating time in our lives!
