Fifth Form College Program
Berkshire’s Fifth Form College Program is designed to help students and their families step confidently into the college search process. Through a series of seminars, one-on-one meetings, and small-group workshops, students begin to reflect on what matters most to them—academically, personally, and socially—as they start to explore the many options available after Berkshire. The program emphasizes fit and self-discovery, helping students build a college list that aligns with their strengths, goals, and interests. At the same time, families are included in the journey, with clear communication and support from the College Office every step of the way. It’s a thoughtful, well-paced introduction to what can be one of the most exciting chapters of the Berkshire experience.

FIFTH FORM COLLEGE PROGRAM NOTES
The College Admissions Panel on Wednesday evening, February 4, features four admissions officers from colleges and universities of varying admissions selectivity, size, and geography. This is a convenient opportunity for current Fifth Formers and their parents to learn more about the process and expectations of college admissions.
The Mock Application Review on Thursday morning, February 5, features the visiting college admissions officers' review and assessment of mock applications from Berkshire. This is a unique window into how college admissions decisions are made. It is historically the most interesting and informative component of the two-day program for parents.
Although Berkshire athletic contests are scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, any students with away games are scheduled to return to campus in time to attend the College Admissions Panel that evening.
