The purpose of this study was to determine which strategies and interventions used by high school counselors to assist students in the college-choice process were perceived by the students as most helpful. Specifically, this study identified the perceptions of students in a middle-income, small city high school. Subjects (N=57) were members of a senior class currently enrolled in an Advanced Placement English class. A wide range of activities and resources designed to assist the college-selection process were made available to assist these students over the period of high school attendance. Data were collected using a questionnaire. Each student was asked to rate various college selection materials and strategies used by the counselor to augment the college-selection process of the students. These students were also asked to evaluate the guidance reference room provided and the services of the counselor. A majority of the students indicated that they were satisfied or more than satisfied with the services provided by the guidance counselor in their college-search activities. The guidance reference room was also widely used and found to be more than satisfactory by 64.8% of the students in the survey. The most helpful resource in facilitating the college-choice decision was indicated by the respondents to be the college visit. The least helpful resource ranked by the students was individual conferences with classroom teachers. (Contains 32 references.) (ABL)
