College Admissions Counseling & Guidance Program

The Oliverian School is a college preparatory school and it is our goal and expectation to advise, counsel and inspire our students to attend institutions of higher learning. Peter Stevens, M.A., our Director of College Counseling, serves as lead advisor to our students in this effort. He is assisted by our entire faculty, including Abby Hood, Dean of Academics, our counseling team, and individual student advisors. We supplement this work by offering an SAT prep class and opportunities for advanced credit.

As a former teacher, dean, school based counselor and Headmaster, Mr. Stevens brings his 35 years of experience in traditional and therapeutic schools to the college consulting and planning process. He is a member of the Independent Educational Counselors Association and the National Association for College Admissions Counseling. While we cannot guarantee admission to any particular college, we seek to ensure that each student enjoys a practical, clear, comprehensive and workable plan, complete with timetables, recommended resources, realistic goals, check-points, evaluation of progress and encouragement.
