Recent graduates have earned acceptances to a variety of universities including University of Chicago, Notre Dame, Johns Hopkins, Northwestern, Dartmouth, Duke, Middlebury, and Vanderbilt, and many have continued graduate school at prestigious institutions like Brown, MIT, and Juilliard.

A Personalized Approach

A small but mighty senior class allows for a hyper-intensive, individualized approach to college counseling. Students also embrace admissions representative visits, field trips to college campuses, parent education nights, and job shadows. Lakers are qualified to compile a robust resume, draft unique essays, and inspire authentic teacher recommendations that bring their applications to life.

Our strong alumni network of Olympians, politicians, and composers return to Hawk Hill as guest speakers, Barn Bash attendees, and even teachers and coaches, often citing their time at ULS as the catalyst for awakening passions, transforming self-conceptions, and cultivating a love of learning.

Milestones for Placement

ULS believes the key to success in college placement lies in strategic preparation. Our college placement program is personalized for every student and their family. A student’s college selection is an individualized choice, and ULS strives to find the optimal school for each of our students based on a variety of student-centered factors.
