On May 19, 2008, the entire junior class at Montverde Academy attended the Second Annual College Admissions Symposium, a workshop designed by Felecia Williams, Director of College Counseling at Montverde Academy. Selected seniors sat on a panel along with Wendy Geer, Senior Assistant Director of Admission at St. Leo University, Marcus Cotton, Admissions Counselor and Regional Recruiter from University of Alabama and Jordan Foley, Montverde Academy Alum (07) and current student at Stetson University. Each participant described in detail a piece of the college admissions process. The topics included; Finding the Right School, Resume Writing, Visiting Colleges, Essay Writing 101, Understanding Grades and Transcripts, Teacher Recommendations and Extra-curricular Activities. Juniors in attendance thought that the information they received was well worth their time and effort and many have already started to research schools that they plan to apply to next year.
