Each senior has a college counselor and applies to 8-10 colleges to find the right "match" school. Students can attend a College Seminar course their senior year to help them complete college, financial, and scholarship applications. Summer of a Lifetime The Summer of a Lifetime program allows Noble Network students to participate in classes over the summer for high school or college credit. Students also visit colleges, museums, and other educational venues. Since 1997, 4500 students have participated in the program.
