Summary: The college application process can be daunting – which is why we seek to guide students and parents every step of the way. Our comprehensive College Counseling program assists with everything from test preparation to visit planning to apllication processing. We make sure that all deadlines are met, and all questions answered. Ultimately our goal is to match each girl with the college or university that best suits her talents, interests, and abilities. At Chatham, every student actively participates in the college preparation process. Students meet frequently with a college counselor and attend a college prep class that meets once a week for a full academic year (from December of the junior year through November of the senior year).
