University Application Assistance
In Person:

Each university sets its own admission requirements, so the process of university
application involves a significant dedication of time and hard work. We help to simplify this process, by assisting students to fill-out their application packages. The written sections of the application usually present the greatest challenge, so we support students in completing the following documents:

  • Personal Statements
  • Letters of Intent
  • Resumes
  • Application Essays
All instruction is private, as it is tailored to meet the needs of each student.

Electronically:
Application packages can be electronically submitted for a comprehensive writing assessment, from one of our onsite consultants. Targeted feedback on structure, style, & grammar will be provided, as well as constructive comments to help students revise and improve their writing.

Current Programs:
Monday - Saturday (day and evening times available) from September, 2011 to June, 2012.
Please call or email to register.


Goal Setting & Academic Planning
The process of goal setting and academic planning requires active engagement, on the part of the student. The student and educational consultant will work collaboratively to generate future career possiblilities.

Grade 9 & 10 Students: Each student, with the assistance of a consultant, will be guided through the process of academic goal setting, course planning for the senior years, and occupational exploration. These sessions will be ongoing throughout the school year.
 
Grade 11 & 12 students: Each student, with the assistance of a consultant, will be guided through the process of post secondary planning: aptitude testing, senior course planning, as well as career and university exploration. These sessions will be ongoing throughout the school year.
