When May arrives, there is usually a shift in the air among college counselors as the atmosphere changes to one more of celebration. With most final-year students having made their decisions and exams arrive and pass, with graduation in sight, there is often a more jovial atmosphere. That said, there is still much to do here through the final push to the end of the academic year. Hopefully, there are some reminders and pointers in the May 2022 College Counseling Cheatsheet that can help you!
The intention of the College Counseling Cheatsheet is to provide a 30-minute (or less) activity each weekday that college counselors can do to improve their counseling practice. Furthermore, the monthly calendar is designed to be uploaded as a CSV file into your Google (or other) calendar so you can get reminders and even move the event to whenever you want within your busy schedule.
Here is the May 2022 Cheatsheet! Try it out, and give me some feedback! Did I miss anything? Do you have any good ideas to share? Any thoughts? See the bottom of the August 2020 Cheatsheet for instructions on how to download and use the Cheatsheet! I also maintain a monthly newsletter that might be of interest to college counselors, as well as a monthly post intended for individuals in schools whose work is adjacent or ancillary to college counseling but who would like to learn more, such as administrators.
