February is often a busy month in the world of college counselors. For many, this month is when the formal shift away from a focus on programming for seniors as we begin working with the juniors in earnest. That said, the seniors are often still in the midst of applying and receiving results. At the same time, those of us responsible for course selection for next year begin with those duties. With all of these competing forces, hopefully, there are some reminders and pointers in the February 2023 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. (Download the Cheatsheet, open your Google Calendar, open Settings, and follow the instructions in the Import/Export tab on the left-hand navigation menu!)
