College Advising
From day one of their Bishop Lynch experience, incoming freshman students and their families become part of a team of teachers, counselors, and college advisors who work collaboratively to provide them with the guidance they need to successfully pursue college acceptance.
BL provides a comprehensive college planning and preparation program beginning with Freshman Orientation and continuing until students graduate and matriculate to their college of choice. One hundred percent of Bishop Lynch students are accepted to college.
The College Advising Experience
The College Advising team tailors information and opportunities to each grade level, walking with students through every step of their college application process. In addition to hosting over 200 college visits on campus and the Annual Career Fair, the advising team is always available for one-on-one conversations with students about their college and career goals.

"There is no question that my son’s journey to finding his perfect college fit started and ended with the Bishop Lynch College Advising Team. From helping my son pick which colleges to apply to and to visit, to helping him make a very big decision when he was accepted off the waitlist to his dream school, they were there each step of the way. My son ended up exactly where he needs to be, and our entire family is incredibly thankful for the help and guidance we received."Kelly Orlando, parent of Tedy '25, freshman at the University of Michigan
