College Counseling
In keeping with the philosophy of Sacred Heart education, which seeks to educate the “whole child”, the college process is founded on the central idea that picking a college is a fundamentally individual decision. Therefore, the College Counseling process at Convent of the Sacred Heart seeks to offer students a maximum of individual attention from the College Counseling Director. With this is in mind, Convent of the Sacred Heart High School students are here to be at Convent, not as a means to an end to gain acceptance into selective colleges, although our seniors are admitted into some of the most selective universities in the nation and the world. We believe this is a natural outcome of the challenging academic curriculum that focuses on inspiring a love of learning for the sake of learning.
Comfortable and welcoming, the College Counseling Office is designed to be a space where students can find guidance for their college goals while simultaneously enjoying a respite from the stresses of their lives. Students receive prompt attention to college-related questions and concerns while at the same time existing as a place where students can relax and interact with the College Counseling Director on an informal basis.
The College Counseling Director takes seriously her role to know each of our students, to help them identify college choices that best meet their needs as individuals and to encourage them as they anticipate the next step in their education.
