Wuhan College Consulting
At the confluence of China’s two main aquatic arteries lies the grand city of Wuhan. A place with a long history of trade and development, today it remains a key economic and cultural center of the country. In addition, with its many beautiful lakes and parks, it is one of the most liveable cities in China, growing more popular each year.
Another reason why so many people choose to live in Wuhan is because of its education. Extremely important on the higher education level, home to institutions like Wuhan University, the city also boasts incredible high schools like Wuhan Yangtze International School and ISA Wuhan International School. However, with all of these impressive high schools come talented students, which can make applying to colleges and universities in places like the United States a very competitive process.
But luckily for you, IvySummit has been helping international students prepare their college applications for years, and we know how to help you rise above the competition. We help with everything from choosing where you’ll apply to editing your essays, and we’re ready to help you make your dreams come true. Learn more about our strategy below, and contact us today to get started.
Our Strategy
Applying to colleges can be a difficult process. There are so many different things to keep track of, work on, and turn in all at once. At IvySummit, we recognize this, and we’re here to help. Our team is composed entirely of admissions experts, including former admissions officers themselves, all of whom have been helping students like you for years. We will keep you on track with deadlines, what’s expected of you, and everything in between.
And when the time comes to work on the applications themselves, we’ll be there for you as well. From helping eloquently describe your extracurricular activities to perfecting your personal statement and other essays, our process has been refined over decades and has proven results. We help you demonstrate why colleges need you on their campuses by emphasizing what makes you unique, making you stand out to each college you apply to.
High School Timeline Guidance
Setting yourself up for acceptance to a top university is something that begins much earlier than your last year of high school. At IvySummit, we honestly believe it begins even before high school starts. That’s because every choice you make in high school and before will be seen by the colleges you apply to, and some choices are better than others. From which high school to attend or classes to take to which activities to participate in or teams to join, simply put, these early decisions matter.
At IvySummit, we offer high school timeline guidance services to help you or your student make these decisions the right way, maximizing your time and setting yourself up for success. High school goes by fast, and colleges want to see that you’ve made the most of it. Contact us to learn more about how to become a step ahead of the competition with our high school timeline guidance services today.
Building a College List
When the time comes to actually apply to colleges, the first important question is where you will send your application. Though it may seem easy, the difference between a good college list and a bad one can make or break your application season. With a good one, you maximize your chance of admissions at schools you would love to attend. With a bad one, you hurt your chances of admission while also risking the chance of being forced to attend a school you don’t like. It’s a dangerous game, but how do you tell the difference between a good and bad list?
At IvySummit, we know. A good list balances your ambitions with your interests. Colleges are as unique as the students who attend them, each with different strengths and weaknesses. From program to location to campus culture, we have acute knowledge of the characteristics of all of the best universities, and we’ll help you evaluate each choice objectively and build the perfect college list for you.
Extracurriculars
At IvySummit, a key part of our process is creatively and strategically highlighting what makes you special, what makes you different from other applicants, and the extracurriculars section is central to our effort. While most students use this section to describe blandly what they have done in high school outside of class, students who work with IvySummit tie it in with their application as a whole and use it to shape their overall narrative.
By emphasizing the impacts that you had on each activity you were a part of, we show admissions officers why you belong at their schools. Whether you’ll be a star athlete, a campus activist, or a prize-winning researcher, we’ll make sure that what makes you unique is central to this section, turning it into your secret weapon.
Essays
Finally, the section of the application you’re probably most familiar with: the college essays. Each college you apply to will ask you to submit a personal statement and various supplemental essays to get to know who you are beyond the facts and figures. For many students, this causes stress and anxiety, as trying to fit your entire life story into one essay can be difficult.
However, with IvySummit by your side, the essay section will never feel like a burden but only like an opportunity. We’ll help you through every stage in the process: choosing prompts, brainstorming ideas, structuring your narratives, and editing each one to perfection.
We’ll use the different prompts to go deeper into different parts of your profile, ensuring that each essay plays off of the others and that, when finished reading, each admissions officer understands the entirety of who you are and what makes you unique.
