Choosing a College

Kent Place views the college application process as an opportunity for each student to define her goals and learn what it means to make a well-informed decision. We tailor college advising to the needs of individual students and their families. Our aim is to give each student the tools to select the college that best matches her interests, temperament and aspirations. Kent Place graduates enter college with excellent writing skills and strong study habits, and they feel comfortable speaking up in class and pursuing knowledge on their own. Our graduates enroll at a range of colleges and universities across the country, and they consistently report that Kent Place has prepared them well.
