The Post-Placement Counseling Department supports the academic and personal development of Prep for Prep students throughout their independent school journey. Prep counselors visit with students regularly at their respective schools. They also meet with school administrators to advocate for students and ensure their well-being. Furthermore, counselors help identify extra resources when necessary, such as academic tutoring or mental health counseling. 

As a way to reconnect outside of school, The Post-Placement Counseling Department plans activities open to all Prep students, including cultural and sporting events. These activities foster strong relationships among Prep students while encouraging personal growth. Additionally, counselors work with families on independent school financial aid applications, chaperone college trips, and run the annual summer boarding school retreat.
