Junior/Family Kickoff Event
Welcome to the College Process, Juniors!
The Junior Kickoff Event is an in-person orientation to the college process that takes place on a Saturday morning in January in the Commons and features a panel of admissions experts, a case study experience, and a panel of BB&N seniors offering advice about their recent experience.
This event will provide an overview of the process, some reflections from college representatives, offer a case study to examine the admissions experience, and Q&A with a panel of seniors. This event is required for juniors and highly recommended for parents/guardians.
Parents/guardians, please find linked below the questionnaire we ask you to complete at the start of the process. Answer each question as best you can knowing that the final result will only be seen by your child's college counselor. Supplemental information can always be shared through emails later in the process.
At the bottom of this page, you can find information/recordings from previous years' kick-off events, including a candid conversation with six members of the Class of 2021 offering advice, a one-on-one chat with Ms. Sarah Lovely about the role of arts in the application process, and some content about applying to colleges outside the United States. Check out the rest of the site for additional resources. Enjoy!
Sincerely,
The College Office
