College Counseling

Walnut Hill School for the Arts has a tradition of successfully placing students in many of the most prestigious and selective colleges and conservatories in the United States and abroad. Every arts discipline at Walnut Hill requires specialized preparation throughout the college search and application process, and our team is exceptionally equipped to offer support and guidance to each student who comes through our program.

At Walnut Hill, we view the college counseling process as one that is rich in opportunities for students to learn about themselves, to develop critical life skills, and to find an environment in which they will thrive academically, artistically, and personally. The college process, to us, is a “match to be made, not a prize to be won,” and we encourage students to shift their focus from finding the “best college” to discovering “the best college for them.”

Walnut Hill is proud to be a member in good standing of the National Association of College Admissions Counseling and the Boston Independent School College Counseling Association.
