Undergraduate admissions strategies 

Background

The final semesters of secondary school are truly an exciting time. There’s nothing like the promise of going overseas to to keep you motivated. It’s also a busy time, as students prepare to enter college, while trying to ensure a successful exit from high school.

As an independent education consultant, we do not have a preference where you study. Some of Asia’s best universities are nearby, in Singapore. Australia is not far and very competitive as a study destination. the U.S., Canada, ad UK all have a a long history of educational cooperation with Indonesia. However, over recent admissions cycles our clients have also accepted offers from institutions in countries, such as Japan, Germany, and even Colombia.

We adopt a consulting approach to education, advising Indonesia-based individuals, families and institutions on how to find the right school and apply and get accepted. We also help with matters related to community college, scholarships, immigration, community college, and so on.

While, ranking schemes and raw data are helpful in identifying strategic options, the human factor is also key. Aside from providing access to specialized databases that can be helpful in finding and comparing options, we will also place you in contact with students, faculty, and alumni who have direct knowledge of the programs that you’re interested in.
