College Planning
As a college-preparatory high school, Rosary not only prepares students for college-level coursework but also guides them through the process of researching colleges and careers and applying to the schools that best fit their goals. We offer college and career workshops, host visits from college representatives, and provide the tools students need to make informed decisions. Rosary maintains a 100 percent college acceptance rate, and our students earn millions of dollars in scholarships each year. Most importantly, Rosary graduates are well-prepared to thrive at the college of their choice.
College Representative Visits
Many colleges send representatives to visit Rosary during the school day. These visits are limited to Juniors and Seniors. Students must sign up with one of the counselors, at lease two days in advance, and secure written permission from their teacher to attend.
