College Counseling
Introduction

Lake Mary Preparatory offers a comprehensive College Counseling program designed to help students identify colleges that fit their interests, abilities, skills, and values. Our program is based upon two fundamental beliefs:

• The college choice is a process which requires well-honed research and decision-making skills.
• The college choice should be geared to the individual, and student and college should be appropriately matched.

To accomplish these goals we offer a range of innovative programs designed to help students and their families make informed, well-reasoned college choices, and we encourage students and parents to take advantage of these opportunities. LMP offers several college counseling programs at different grade levels designed to introduce students and families to important elements of and appropriate attitudes toward the college search and application process. To facilitate the college search and matching process, each year Meritas Schools visit dozens of campuses across the country, including colleges as regionally diverse as Savannah School of Art and Design, Northwestern University , Trinity University , the University of North Carolina, and Emory. Students are able to join other students during interims in visiting these campuses. LMP’s staff is active in college admissions and counseling professional organizations, and staff members have led and participated and attended professional meetings at both the regional and national levels.
