College Counseling at HNA

 

As a college preparatory school, Holy Names Academy assists its students with the college search and admissions process. The two full-time, dedicated counselors in the College Counseling Office offer the following services:



  • Individual student counseling to assist with the college application and selection process. Students are guided in the exploration of such areas as: proposed major course of study; academic qualifications; expectations regarding tuition, room, board, and other expenses; preferences as to geographical location, religious affiliation, size of school, etc.
  • Individual and group meetings with parents and students concerning the overall admissions process, applications, testing, and financial aid.
  • Coordination of visits by college admissions representatives and notification to students about other Puget Sound area college meetings.
  • Parent workshops for college planning and college financial planning, with guest speakers from colleges.
  • Online and print resources for information on college profiles and admissions, testing (ACT and SAT), scholarships, and financial aid.
  • Publication of the monthly newsletter, College Counselors' Corner, in the HNA Monthly Newsletter for parents.
