News from The Newman College Counseling Office

Greetings from the College Counseling office!   There's been a lot of activity in the CC office over the last few weeks as we follow up on applications to colleges and begin the process for getting to know the juniors and help them better understand the college process and what it might mean for them. To that end, there are lots of announcements to be made in this newletter.

Seniors and Parents of Seniors:  
For all students: Keep checking to ensure that all your documents have arrived at the colleges you've applied to. If you're missing something, please let me know. I have been hearing from colleges directly to help them gather any missing pieces of information, but many will simply update the application portal or send the applicant an email. So stay on top of this. 

ALL SENIORS!  you need to carefully watch out for the serious illness that goes around when one turns a second semester senior: senioritis!
It's real, and it can be harmful. Stay the course! You won't want to lose your office of admissions after you've graduated. Yes, that can happen. Questions about it? Please see me.

Also, if you make any changes to your curriculum (eg, dropping the IB diploma program), you MUST let the colleges know of these changes. Any change that is not reported could result in your losing your offer of admission. Please discuss any changes with me, if necessary; and together, we'll figure out the best way to report it.

Each month  we recognize the names of the students celebrating a birthday that month. Each student receives a card and small gift. We celebrate the "sixth-month" birthdays of those students whose birthdays fall in June, July and August. This tradition is recognition of the importance of each individual life to our school community.
