Welcome to College Summit

College Counselor

Every year students cite their college counseling component of the workshop as one of the most pivotal moments of their experience. It is in their sessions with professional college counselors that our students really start to believe the many possibilities and options out there for them.

Expert College Counselors bring a wealth of knowledge about the thousands of college and career options available to College Summit students. Through one-on-one meetings with each student, College Counselors help students define a manageable path to college. Through these sessions, college becomes a reality for many students who never before considered college an option.
