College Counseling

Dexter Southfield’s College Counseling program is designed to help each student find a match in higher education to support their academic goals and interests.

The College Counseling Office provides individualized counseling, guidance, and support throughout each student's Dexter Southfield experience.
Beginning with informational sessions for Middle School families and an assigned college counselor in Class 9, the Dexter Southfield program is a partnership to create strategies that help our students thrive and meet their goals.

We understand that researching and applying to college can be both a challenging and an exciting time. We strive to educate students and families to ensure a full understanding of the search, application, and selection process and provide the adequate tools and resources to help successfully navigate each step. The office works closely with students’ advisors, teachers, and coaches to ensure that colleges and universities receive the fullest image of each student’s achievements and promise.
