College Placement
The college selection process begins in the junior year when each student is assigned to a college advisor. A college information weekend for parents of juniors is held in the spring.
In the college advising resource room, juniors and seniors can use various sources of information, including catalogs and computer software, in making their college selections. Computer software and Internet access are available for applications, and college representatives visit the school regularly throughout the fall.
An SAT preparation course is available to all juniors and precedes the spring administration of the test. Kimball Union's SAT I scores are higher than the national averages. Students also have the opportunity to take the ACT Assessment on campus.

Famous quotes containing the word college:
“We talked about and that has always been a puzzle to me
why American men think that success is everything
when they know that eighty percent of them are not
going to succeed more than to just keep going and why
if they are not why do they not keep on being
interested in the things that interested them when
they were college men and why American men different
from English men do not get more interesting as they
get older.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
