college counseling overview One of the most important and impactful decisions our students will make is deciding on a college. Our team is dedicated to supporting students on this journey to ensure they explore and apply to schools that will best support their abilities, nurture their interests, and empower them to transform the world. The Sacred Heart Greenwich College Counseling program is designed to provide individualized attention to each of our students and their families, beginning freshman year, to ensure they are empowered and well informed. We operate on the firm belief that the college process should be seamless and focus on discovering schools that will be a good fit for the unique needs of each student. From freshman through senior year, each student will be guided from the exploration and planning phases through the application process and the ultimate selection of her college destination.
