Gerstell Academy’s College Guidance Roadmap
9th Grade
We help students explore their interests so they can develop a long-term plan for Upper School.
10th Grade
Students start to think about how their strengths and interests can help them with future opportunities. Students are encouraged to explore summer experiences that align with their interests and learn about careers and college programs. Students will also take the PSAT for practice.
11th Grade
We help students deepen their ways to demonstrate leadership and dive into college research. Eleventh grade is when students consider college fit from three areas: academic, social, and financial. Students attend an essay workshop, take the PSAT, request letters of recommendations, and get organized for senior year.
12th Grade
Students receive ongoing support from the College Guidance team throughout their application process. We help students finalize application plans, meet each school’s deadlines, help with financial applications, and finalize the enrollment process.
