Information for College Reps

Visiting MA

Visiting MA

We would love for you to visit us and give you an opportunity to meet with our wonderful students. Only juniors and seniors are invited to attend meetings with college representatives. All visits are scheduled after school — either at 2:30 p.m. or 2:50 p.m. depending on the day’s schedule.

We use SCOIR to schedule rep visits. This service is free to colleges, and it allows reps to plan trips in a map view, see availability of multiple high schools at a time, create virtual visits, and sync with your personal calendars. Please create an account, and schedule a time to meet with our students in the fall.

If you would like to conduct interviews on campus, we would be happy to help you with that as well.

New to recruiting in this area? We strongly encourage you to also visit some of our amazing public schools in the area like San Rafael and Terra Linda HS. Next Generation Scholars is also a community-based organization just down the street from us. Here are some approximate driving times to help you plan your high school visits in the area (depending on traffic, of course):

30-40 minutes from the northern part of San Francisco (e.g., San Francisco University High School or the Bay School) OR from the northern part of the East Bay Area (e.g., Albany, El Cerrito, or Saint Mary’s High Schools or Making Waves Academy)

20-25 minutes from Tamalpais High School or Novato High School (also home to Marin School of the Arts)
15-20 minutes from San Domenico School or Terra Linda High School
15 minutes from Redwood High School
10 minutes from Branson School, Marin Catholic High School, or Sir Francis Drake High School
5 minutes from San Rafael High School

College counseling is located on the 2nd Floor of Founders Hall. We suggest parking along 5th Street, E Street (between 5th St. and Mission Ave.) or in the parking lot on Mission Ave. (between E St. and Bryn Mawr Dr.). View a map of campus.
