College Counseling
Finding a place to grow and thrive
At St. Andrew's-Sewanee School, we offer the personalized attention needed to find the college that will empower students to reach their full potential as scholars and as individuals. Our process focuses on finding the right match for each student.

Counseling for parents, too
Each year SAS hosts a college counseling workshop for parents in January/February. The workshop includes sessions with the Director of College Counseling and college admission professionals and is designed to preview the upcoming college application process.
Beginning in winter of their junior year, our Director of College Counseling meets with juniors in groups and individually. His office door is always open for those that want to get a jump start on the process!
A favorite stop for college counselors
In a typical year, representatives from 50 colleges and universities visit SAS, a clear testament to the reputation of our graduates in the college world.

Celebrating with our seniors
When a student commits to a college, we celebrate that decision by recording their school on the class banner in the College Counseling Office, and our College Counselor makes an announcement in Chapel. On College Decision Day, members of the senior class sport their college logos for an all-class photo.
SCOIR
St Andrew's-Sewanee School uses Scoir (pronounced "score"), a college guidance management system. Scoir streamlines the process of requesting, processing, sending and tracking the electronic delivery of all application-related documents.
Students and parents find Scoir useful in the college search and selection process with colleges coming to life through pictures, videos, and links. Scoir also provides parents with financial calculators to determine the likely cost of attendance at different colleges. These features, along with more convenient scheduling and communication tools, will help keep everyone informed and engaged throughout the college application process.
