College Counseling
Brother Rice graduates consistently earn admission to the nation's best colleges, universities, and US service academies.
Our robust, four-year, highly personalized college counseling program is one of our greatest assets. Our counselors are dedicated to introducing the college preparation model beginning freshman year. Counselors meet regularly with upper-level students and families to provide guidance and support in each aspect of the college search—from planning coursework and extracurricular activities to study skills, time management, resume building, and navigating the application process. By senior year, each student meets with their college counselor on a regular basis to discuss their progress and seek any guidance needed as they contemplate choosing the right-fit college.
