Our Admissions ApproachÌý
We take a personalized approach to the college admissions process. When considering applicants, we take into account not just grades and test scores, but factors such as student involvement in the community and leadership experience. Our admissions counselors work closely with prospective students to guide them through the college selection and admissions process. You can use theÌýFind My CounselorÌýresource to learn more about and connect with the admissions counselor assigned to your institution.
Opportunities to Visit Campus
School Counselors are welcome to schedule a High School Counselor Visit. These visits take place Monday–Friday at 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. and can include a meeting with an admissions counselor, a walking tour of campus, attending a class, chatting with a current student, and lunch in our dining hall.
Group tours are available to middle school students, high school students, and community-based organizations or educational non-profits working with current high school students. To schedule your group visit, please email Vanessa Zóa, Director of Admissions, at vzoa@meredith.edu.
