Worcester Prep Class of 2024 jump-starts college application process

The Worcester Prep Class of 2024 hit the ground running  Aug. 14 in preparation for their college application season this fall.

Rising seniors attended a four-day college application and essay writing workshop in the Guerrieri Library, hosted by the WPS Office of College Counseling. The students worked one-on-one with WPS Director of College Counseling Vickie Garner, writing college applications and essays, practicing interview techniques and refining their college lists.

Guest speakers visited throughout the week to share their expertise with students, including Dr. Janessa Dunn, associate dean of admissions at Wake Forest University; Maureen Dormer, admissions counselor at Loyola University, Md.; and Charles Overholt, assistant director of admissions at Salisbury University.
