High school placement in the USA or Canada
An international student who has studied at a private school in the US or Canada before entering a university in either country has several significant advantages:
-
Improved English fluency and academic language skills;
-
Acquaintance with the social norms and customs of the country;
-
Familiarity with the US education system, including an understanding classroom dynamics and expectations as well as familiarity with academic standards;
-
Ability to take Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) courses;
-
Ability to prepare for standardized tests such as the SAT/ACT with better, earlier access to preparation resources;
-
Access to private school counselors familiar with US admissions processes;
-
Access to teachers who can write letters of recommendation on behalf of the student.
We help place international students in prestigious private middle and high schools.
Our counselors consider the best educational options for each applicant, not only considering factors such as the academic reputation of a given institution, but also the available opportunities for extracurricular activities and the cultural environment.
