College-Planning Process

The COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be no match for NDCL’s counseling department, which has nimbly shifted gears to keep the college-planning process on track with effective virtual strategies to serve our students and their parents.

On Sept. 10, the department hosted its annual College Kick-Off presentation via Zoom. Jenn Toomey, assistant director of undergraduate and graduate assistance at Case Western Reserve

University, joined NDCL’s counselors to share important information on the Common Application, essays, test scores, recommendation letters and other relevant topics.

Throughout the fall, the counseling department will facilitate virtual visits of representatives from dozens of colleges and universities throughout the country. The Zoom meetings help students learn about majors, campus life, scholarships and other opportunities.

“These admission reps are the professionals who read our students’ applications to their universities, so these are valuable connections to make,” explained Katie Koci, director of counseling.
