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:
“Here was a place where nothing was crystallized. There were no traditions, no customs, no college songs .... There were no rules and regulations. All would have to be thought of, planned, built up, created—what a magnificent opportunity!”
—Mabel Smith Douglass (1877–1933)
