College Counseling
Cardinal Newman is a college preparatory school and our number one goal is fully preparing all of our students for the future. For most of our students that means preparing for college. The college application process can feel overwhelming, and at times maybe even intimidating. This is why we have a dedicated College Counselor, Ms. Mary Mann, who begins working with students as early as ninth grade.
Ms. Mann sends weekly updates in the Cardinal Compass, to keep parents aware of what resources and grade appropriate events are available to them and their students. College counseling begins when students enter high school, with research and test prep, and continues with increased regularity through a student's senior year. Cardinal Newman is proud to have built relationships with and sent students to elite programs like Duke, Yale, Notre Dame, UCLA, UNC Chapel Hill, Northwestern, Catholic University, American University, William & Lee, Virginia Tech, Clemson Honors, University of South Carolina Honors, Wofford, Furman and many more. College Counseling is an important component of the high school process, and is available to all families.
Year-to-Year | What to Expect
For Colleges & Universities: Cardinal Newman uses RepVisits to schedule college visits. We will be hosting Admission Representatives from September 18th through November 15th . Junior and senior students are invited to attend at all visits. With a graduating class enrolled yearly at colleges and universities across the country, we welcome both regional and national Admissions Representatives to visit our
campus. In person and virtual visits are available. All visits will last 30 to 40 minutes.
If you have any questions or cannot find a time that matches with your availability, please contact Mary Mann, College Counselor, at 803-888-1624 or mmann@cnhs.org. We look forward to hosting you and giving our students the
opportunity to learn about all your college has to offer!
