Monthly College Counseling Update: April 2019

College Counseling
May 1 Decision Day is Coming! 

On May 1st, we will celebrate College Decision Day with the seniors. We do so to recognize their Archmere accomplishments and celebrate their futures. Seniors will wear apparel from their future schools and gather on the steps of St. Norbert’s at the end of the day for a class photo, just as they will at graduation a month later. The day will also include an all-day photo booth, Rita’s Water Ice, and other fun activities. Everyone is welcome to join in on the "end of the day" fun.  
Programming 

Juniors and Sophomores are welcome to participate in the After School College Workshops on Monday, May 20th. Representatives from Fairfield, Lynn, WashU, Muhlenberg, Syracuse, and Lehigh will be presenting on Supplemental Essays, EA/ED, and Understanding Fit. The program will run from 2:45 to 4 pm and students will have the ability to attend two sessions. To register, visit https://pickatime.com/client?ven=11607878&event=335538.
