Organize Yourself Before Winter Break Begins

As a college counselor, you stay busy all year, so using your time wisely is important. However, between the phone ringing, sessions with students, and meetings, finding the time to organize yourself may seem fleeting.

Encourage Your Students to Stay Focused

While many high schools have their students take semester exams before the break, depending on your school’s schedule, your students might take their exams after the winter break. In this case, students will need to stay sharp and study for their exams during the break.

Prioritize Winter Break Tasks

Because college counselors help many students through the college admissions process, they typically work some during their winter break. This work might include writing letters of recommendation, reminder emails, or timelines.

Think Ahead to Stay Ahead

As you know, the last semester of the year is busy and packed with activities, exams, deadlines, and preparation. You’ll have sophomores preparing for junior year, and juniors preparing for senior year. You’ll also have your current seniors preparing for graduation and going away to college.
