College Counseling


The growth and independence of each Rivers student culminates in the close, personal, and detailed work of our college counseling staff. Under the experienced leadership of one of the top directors in the country, counselors guide families with the simple, long-standing philosophy of matching the right student with the right college.

This philosophy is based upon a deep, detailed understanding of each student. College counselors interact with students in various roles throughout their Upper School career and enter the process with a unique respect for students’ strengths. This knowledge, coupled with feedback from our Family Meetings, becomes the foundation for highly individualized, student-centered advising.
