College Rep Visit Program

 

We extend a warm invitation to college admissions officers to engage with our Sixth Form students through on-campus visits. All college representative sessions are graciously hosted at Portsmouth Abbey, offering an exclusive opportunity to interact with our dynamic student body firsthand.

To schedule a visit, we kindly request college admissions officers to create an account on Maia Learning and utilize the Maia Visit option to secure a time slot. For guidance on navigating Maia Visits, a comprehensive training video is available for your convenience. 

In alignment with our commitment to sustainability, the College Counseling Office has transitioned to a paperless approach. We no longer accept hard copy materials from colleges and universities, and our school profile is conveniently accessible in electronic format. You may access the Abbey school profile via the provided link.
