College Counseling
Advice and Advocacy from Professionals
Providing Tabor students and families with the support necessary to make informed, intentional decisions is the goal of the College Counseling Office. On top of being college counselors with 85 years of combined experience, we are dorm parents, coaches, program directors, and advisors who attend our counselees’ plays, athletic events, and musical presentations. We know our students well. As a result, we are able to represent and advocate for students in the best possible ways.
