    Important Meeting Protocol for Seniors

    For Essay Review

    • The College & Career Center will read essays for up to 12 colleges.
    • Essays should be shared with us via Google Docs 48 hours before your meeting. If you cannot send us your essays in advance, please reschedule your meeting so we can maximize our time together.

    • If you are working with an independent college counselor, please share your essays on a separate document for use ONLY by the College & Career staff.

    For Brainstorming 

    • If you are unsure what you would like to write about, please come prepared with at least 2 completed brainstorming exercises shared in your Personal Narrative workbook.

    For Application Assistance

    • Typically this does not require an individual meeting. Swing by during our Open Office Hours every day during brunch and lunch

    Open Office Hours
