Grandview Preparatory School considers college counseling a four year endeavor for upper school students. At Grandview we even believe it is important to think about college as a middle school student, since decisions you make during those years can affect future opportunities and choices.
Here at Grandview, we offer a unique opportunity for all students to become actively engaged in the college search, selection, and decision making process. All upper school students take a semester long College Prep Skills course. The curriculum for this course includes topics on organizing the college search, planning college visits, and interpreting admission requirements. Students will learn about SAT and ACT testing strategies, financial aid opportunities, scholarships, athletic requirements, portfolio requirements and much more. In addition, we utilize the web-based Naviance Family Connection system of tracking and organizing the student's college application process.
The College Counseling Center is open to all students and their families. There are numerous resources available including college guides, test preparation information, scholarship information, and financial aid information. Many evening events are held throughout the year to assist students in choosing and applying to colleges, scholarships and financial aid.
Our graduates have gone on to pursue their education at colleges and universities all over the country. Many students were accepted at their first choice school, and many were awarded thousands of dollars in scholarship money.
