Freshman through Senior Year

Freshman through Senior Year

Throughout the Upper School, Nichols students and families are supported by a thoughtful, grade-level college counseling program that builds over time.

In partnership with deans, advisors, and families, the College Counseling team helps students explore their academic and extracurricular interests, develop self-awareness, and approach the future with curiosity and confidence. Each year introduces age-appropriate conversations, resources, and expectations that prepare students for the college search and life after Nichols.
