     The Palos Verdes High School College & Career Center provides a comprehensive college guidance program to our PVHS Sea King Community. Students and families are introduced to, and invited to engage in, college guidance activities starting in the 9th grade. Students are encouraged to communicate and begin even more intentional work with their PVHS counselor and the College & Career Center through the 11th & 12th grades so they are well-informed and confident in making plans for their post secondary years. 

 

The PVHSCCC is proud to provide our community with the most current information and trusted resources to meet the information and planning needs of our students and families. All PVHS students have access to college admission counselor visits every fall. The PVHSCCC recommends students take advantage of our resources early in their high school career, and families begin getting familiar with college planning information as their student transitions to high school.

 

Together with our outstanding counselors, the PVHSCCC works to ensure a comprehensive college going culture for all PVHS students. While a majority of our students matriculate to a two or four year institution, the PVHSCCC strives to meet the unique needs and paths of each individual student.

 

To find more in-depth information by grade level or general college admission resources, please utilize the links in the right-hand menu.

 

The Palos Verdes High School College & Career Center is located in Room 318 on the NW corner of Sea King Park. We look forward to assisting our students on their journey through high school to wherever their hard work and dreams lead them. GO SEA KINGS!

DESCRIPTION

 
We welcome you to join our upcoming PSAT Score Review sessions!  We’ll help you interpret what your scores mean, what they project, and what to do with them – whether that means further diagnostics, creating a plan to prepare for the first digital SAT in the spring, or switching gears to focus on the ACT. We’ll also have recent updates on the landscape of colleges’ testing policies... some might decide that testing is not an avenue to pursue with a record number (2,000+) colleges and universities that are Test-Optional or Test-Free for Fall 2025 Applicants!
 

Recommended for: parents/guardians and 10th/11th grade students who took the digital adaptive PSAT in October 2024.
