EXCELLENCE IN COLLEGE PLACEMENT

Our college counseling program guides students and parents through the complexities and challenges of the admissions process. We assess each student’s goals and work closely with them to find colleges where those goals are attainable and students can flourish.

We offer a variety of programming to prepare families for the application process, including annual spring break college road trips, financial aid presentations, and standardized test preparation in junior year. Additionally, more than 40 college admissions representatives visit the high school each year to meet with our students.

Students who wish to write an AP exam in a subject of particular expertise find encouragement and support for their independent studies from the faculty at Steiner.
