JUNIORS – SPRING COLLEGE TRIP!

The College Office has arranged the annual spring college tour for juniors.  The tour will take place Friday, March 27.  A detailed itinerary is included in the attached packet.  

Our Spring College Tour will include official campus information sessions and tours of the following institutions: Princeton University, Haverford College, and Lehigh University.  

We hope that your visiting this varied group of institutions will not only help juniors learn more about these specific schools, but to better understand the wide range of college options available, and increase understanding of college admissions and financial aid.

Students interested in registering for Stuyvesant's Spring College Tour must carefully read the following:

  • students must have a cumulative GPA of 87 or higher to participate due to the selectivity of the colleges on this trip.  Space is limited to 50 students.
  • the trip fee covers bus transportation, lunch on the Haverford campus, and dinner on the Lehigh campus.  The cost of the trip is dependent upon family income as reported in school income verification forms:

Please also carefully review the full packet at this link including the itinerary and expectations.  Permission slips are included within the packet.

Unfortunately, all students cannot be accommodated to come on campus tours; we are simply far too large of a high school.  Visiting colleges remains a family responsibility.  We expect this tour to fill up quickly, so we encourage you to act fast if you would like to attend.
