What The Linsly School says about their university placement record and services:
- Each student receives individualized guidance based on their academic profile, interests, and goals.
- The Director of College Counseling works with students starting in 9th grade.
- During the senior year, students will receive college counseling during small group sessions where students can work on applications, ask questions, and address specific parts of the college process.
- Linsly will bring college representatives directly to campus to meet with students. Students can meet with admissions officers, ask questions, and learn about colleges and universities firsthand. Linsly also provides virtual options when colleges cannot send representatives to campus.
- Linsly does not simply focus on getting students to the most prestigious colleges. The counseling program emphasizes finding the school that fits the student's academic interests, career goals, personality and extracurricular interests.
