Some are thinking about your college application plans, so the College Office is providing a brief update/reminder about our college counseling program here at Stuy, which begins in just a few months.
-our updated College Handbook is now available in Document Resources in Naviance and on Talos at this link. Juniors received an email as soon as that is fully updated and finalized for your class. Versions in other languages will be posted as soon as they are available as well. It is important that each family read the handbook in its entirety so that they are much more clear on the process that lies ahead. Feel free to revisit the College Checklists posted in Document Resources as well.
-we will begin to work in depth with the Class of 2025 at the start of the second term. We will kick off with our Junior College Night event for parents and assemblies with important general information for students. Save the date for January 25 at 6:30pm and check your emails for the webinar registration link soon.
-our college counselors will begin to schedule individual and family appointments with their respective caseloads of juniors at the start of the new term. Meetings will run throughout the entire second term. Students, make sure that you have added a parent to your Naviance account before then, and that you regularly check your email; you don’t want to miss the chance to meet with your assigned college counselor this year. Remember that family meetings are only offered in the junior year, and students who wait until May or June to attempt to schedule may not get the chance to meet with their college counselor until next fall.
-We’ll be hosting several admissions events in the second term inluding our huge in-person college fair in the spring. Details tbd. Check your email and Ms. Ingram's weekly updates for details.
-a free school-day SAT for all juniors will be held in March. Details will be shared with families through Dr. Haber's office in the second term.
We look forward to working with you next term. Until then, the College Office requires your patience, as we must devote all of our time during the fall term to the seniors...next year, you’ll understand.
