College Counseling

Students receive a thorough review of their academic records to ensure that basic high school graduation and college entrance requirements have been met.

A counselor meets individually with all students and their parents to assess the potential match for their stated college options and their personal and academic achievements. Based on the findings of this assessment, students will receive suggestions on various considerations related to their college goals.

The Lycée Counseling Department helps students with in-depth college application assistance.

Along with a student’s grade point average, standardized test scores on exams such as the SAT and ACT are of critical importance to college admissions. The College Counseling Department responds to this fact of life by providing students with intensive SAT preparation as part of the school’s curriculum.

Are you uncertain of what you want to be when you grow up? Lycée counselors can help you envision your dreams in the context of reality by guiding your efforts in the direction of your goals.  

Additionally we host our annual Career Day Each year speakers with different expertise generously share their professional experience and their time with over 240 LyceeLA students (8th-12th grade). 

Throughout the day, students participate in sessions tailored to their career interests. We try to select guest speakers covering a wide span of professional fields, while also trying to vary the participants from year to year.

Career Day is a wonderful opportunity for our students to discover potential interests and develop important professional connections with our alumni and other members of Le Lycée Community. 

For most people, paying for college is a major issue. The Counseling Department helps interested students get a jump-start on these concerns by providing them timely information about financial aid requirements and options along with application advice.

As colleges become increasingly competitive, admissions personnel look for innovative ways of selecting between candidates of similar academic standing. This is accomplished by considering a student’s leadership experience and service to the community. The Lycée Counseling Department maintains a listing of community service opportunities covering a broad range of categories tailored to a student’s particular interests.
