Lecture Series: Global Elite Universities & You

The Director's signature keynote address series for schools, clubs, and other groups. An amusing and insightful window into elite global universities from the top 10 to the top 100 in English-speaking countries or countries where other languages are spoken, but signature programs are taught in English. Many of the most prestigious universities are lesser known internationally, however they are also of comparative high value with their better known competitors, such as Harvard or Oxford. This talk offers a peek behind the curtain of top-tier university application processes and offers admissions how-to's. Students must be academically strong to apply, but can be far from perfect and still reach the top of international universities. Understanding the university ranking system and what abilities need to be highlighted vs. worked on before you make your list is touched upon. As well as touching on: how to be authentic but polished, how to showcase the variety of your experiences and applicable skills, and how to show off your ideas and ambitions. An entertaining dive into the quantitative and qualitative aspects of selecting a university and being accepted. Getting into university is about being different - not being the same. Our students have been admitted to the best universities on three continents - come learn how to begin.
