College pathways after high school
Graduating from an American high school opens the next door
Our program ends at high school graduation, but the diploma you earn is the strongest possible starting point for university applications anywhere in the world.
Why US-schooled students apply from a stronger position
- A US transcript needs no credential evaluation or equivalency conversion
- Counsellor recommendations carry weight with American admissions offices
- AP results can convert into first-year university credit
- Four years of English-medium schooling often waives language test requirements
What the final two years look like
- 01
Grade 11
Take the SAT or ACT, build a strong course load and deepen one or two extracurricular commitments.
- 02
Summer before grade 12
Draft the personal essay and build a balanced university list with the school counsellor.
- 03
Autumn of grade 12
Submit early applications, request recommendations and complete financial aid forms.
- 04
Spring of grade 12
Compare offers, confirm funding and transfer the student visa to the university.
