Information For School Counselors
Thank you for taking the time to visit the Providence College website. As a secondary school counselor, we understand that you are working with many college-bound students who themselves are looking at a wide variety of colleges and universities. The Office of Admission at Providence College seeks to assist you in determining the right fit between each student you work with and the college or university that they will ultimately enroll at by giving you as much information as possible about PC.
These pages are designed for you and your particular needs as a secondary school counselor working with high school students.
