College Placement
Washington Waldorf graduates matriculate to a wide variety of colleges and universities, large and small, public and private. We hear frequent comments from college admissions officers on how interesting, thoughtful, and articulate our students are as applicants and later as students.
Our broad yet deep curriculum prepares our graduates to tackle what matters most in the college and work worlds — knowing how to think clearly, creatively, and analytically; perform research; synthesize; and work independently, collaboratively, and with joy. Our graduates are prepared to grapple with the unknowns of a rapidly changing world in a wide variety of fields.
We have a dedicated college advisor who works with families as they navigate the college selection, application, and decision process.
