Welcome to Hunter College High School's Counseling Office!


The goal of the Counseling Department is to help students benefit from every aspect of the school experience. The staff is available to students, parent(s)/guardian(s) and teachers for discussion of students’ academic, personal or future planning concerns.

The primary role of the counselor is to assist students in the development of awareness of themselves and their environment and to translate that awareness into actions which enable them to fully realize their potential.

Services Overview

List of 6 items.

  • Academic Advising

    Academic Advising is offered by the counselor who offers insights into course selection and extracurricular activities, offers tips on time management and study skills.
  • College Counseling

    Students and families begin working during the spring semester of the junior year with their college counselor on the formalized college counseling process. The College Kickoff officially “kicks off” this profess, as students are invited to attend this event to learn about the timelines that lie ahead. The College Counselor beings to work with the junior students through group/class meetings, individual appointments, and various events held throughout the spring. Students begin to complete a list of possible college choices, and are encouraged to continue the college search process throughout the summer. College counseling for seniors is an extensive program of small-group meetings, as well as guidance through the process of applications and college essays. Student/parent/guardian(s) evening informational programs are also offered—-covering various topics related to the application process and financial aid. One of the most challenging yet rewarding tasks for the College Counselor is completing a strong letter of recommendation for each student. Admissions officers visit Hunter throughout the fall to talk with interested students. Such visits enable students to learn firsthand about the colleges they may be considering. College admissions officers also meet directly with members of the department to learn more about the curriculum and the preparation students receive at HCHS.
  • Personal Counseling

    Personal counseling is available with the counselor who meets directly with students to help identify problems and work through them. The counselor assists teachers, administration and outside resources in addressing academic, personal, behavioral and emotional concerns. These services include:
    1. Serving as an advocate for students
    2. Listening to students and assessing their needs/developing realistic interventions

  • Psychological Services

    Balancing the demands of Hunter College High School and personal life can be challenging; The Hunter College H.S.
