College Counseling:

The Dinoff School understands how difficult the transition from High School to higher education can be for both students and parents. Our formal college counseling process will begin in the sophomore year, with students and advisors meeting in large group, small group, and one-to-one sessions to assess student interests, discuss career goals, weigh the importance of factors such as location, cost, size, and extra-curricular activities, and gain a sense of the range of selectivity a student should have in mind in his or her research of colleges.

College counselors at The Dinoff School will help a student identify a group of colleges that meet the student’s needs academically and that will provide an appropriate environment for a student’s continuing personal and intellectual growth. We will do our very best to help students to see a match, and then continue to assist them throughout the application process. We will host field trips to visit college campuses and offer informed advice to students and their parents at every stage in the transition to college.
