College Counseling

Graduates toss their caps into the air

Personalized. Strategic. Student-Centered.

At Woodward, college counseling is more than support—it’s a partnership built on knowing each student as an individual. Starting in 9th grade, our four-year program helps students discover who they are and where they’ll thrive next.

  • Dedicated college counselors work one-on-one with students and families.

  • More than 150 college reps visit campus each year.

  • Alumni panels, essay workshops, and financial aid guidance help students navigate the college application process.

  • We focus on authentic fit—not just where you can get in, but where you’ll belong.

  • Explore our Academic Profile to learn more about the distinctive features of our curriculum and cocurricular opportunities.

The result? A thoughtful, empowering transition to the right college—because the goal isn’t just getting in. It’s a meaningful launch into what’s next.
