As students prepare for their lives beyond Mooney, Guidance Counselors assist them in the college admissions and vocational exploration processes.  Below are helpful links and forms for students and parents as they begin this exciting next chapter.

College Visits

Senior students may attend as many college visits as they wish to attend, provided they meet admissions criteria (e.g. boys cannot attend the Ursuline College presentation and students in the bottom 10% of the class cannot attend MIT or Notre Dame presentations).

Juniors will receive only THREE passes to see college representatives, so they should choose only those colleges in which they have a genuine interest.
