College Counseling


St. Mary Academy - Bay View's college counseling philosophy throughout the application process is simple and powerful: Choosing a best-fit college is a critical step to forge a path to success.

College Planning at Bay View

Our college counselors are dedicated to working closely with junior and senior students as well as their families, helping them navigate the application process and determine which colleges and universities best suit their academic, personal and professional goals. Through individual and small group meetings, classroom visits and advisory presentations, each student will be provided the resources and advocacy to make the most appropriate college choice.

Using the web-based solution, Naviance Succeed, our college counselors assist students with course planning, career planning, and college planning. In addition, students and their families have access to Family Connection, which allows users to:

  • Get involved in the planning process - build a resume; manage timelines and deadlines for making decisions about colleges and careers.
  • Research colleges - compare GPA, standardized test scores, and other statistics to actual historical data from students who have already applied from Bay View.
  • Sign up for college visits - find out which colleges are visiting our school and sign up to attend those sessions.
