Brussels Admissions Services

Welcome to Brussels, where the cosmopolitan vibes echo in every cobblestone alley and the tantalizing aroma of waffles wafts through the air. Here, amidst grand squares and cutting-edge institutions like St. John’s International School, British School of Brussels, and others, students are scripting stories of ambition and success.

Each year top Bruxellois students from these institutes compete for a select few spots at elite US colleges. The competition is cut-throat and only the cream of the crop makes it across.

Crafting a successful application requires more than just impressive grades and test scores. It’s about painting a holistic portrait of who you are – a student from Brussels with unique experiences and insights.

The process can be very intimidating without a guiding hand, but not to worry, at IvySummit we specialize in turning your dream college destinations into reality.

Brussels Admissions Counseling: Our Method

At IvySummit, we understand that standing out in the academic crowd can feel tougher than finding a parking spot in Brussels at peak hours. But here’s where we come in. With a team featuring seasoned Harvard and Stanford alumni and former Stanford admissions officers, we’ve got the expertise to make your college application more enticing than a plate of Belgian fries.

In the competitive field of college applications, we don’t just equip students with a paddle. We steer the boat, charting a course that’s tailored for you. From perfecting your high school timeline to polishing your application essays, we’ve got you covered. 

The College List

Crafting the college list, for some, can feel daunting. Should you go for the top-tier dream schools or the safe, predictable ones? 

IvySummit is here to make this crucial task manageable. The art of creating a college list is about balancing aspiration and practicality. We guide you through this process, ensuring your list reflects your unique academic profile, interests, and future ambitions. We don’t merely help you list names; we assist in creating strategic pathways towards your ideal future.

Whether it’s reach, match, or safety schools, we craft a balanced list that aligns with your goals and enhances your chances of admission.

Timeline

Getting a timeline in order can feel overwhelming, chaotic, and you may not even know where to start. That’s where IvySummit comes into the picture.

We don’t just help you create a timeline. We guide you to understand it, own it, and stay on top of it. It’s not about ticking off checkboxes, it’s about building a meaningful and strategic roadmap towards your future. From managing your high school timeline to developing a senior year plan, we ensure that every step aligns perfectly with your college ambitions.

Why leave things to chance when you can turn the clock in your favor? Let’s get your timeline organized today with IvySummit.

Building Out Extracurricular Interests

Extracurriculars – a term that’s as multifaceted as Brussels’ eclectic architecture. In the college admissions race, having a diverse range of interests is just as important as your academic grades. But it’s not just about participating in every club or team available to you, it’s about depth and passion, not breadth and randomness.

At IvySummit, we’re not just about expanding your extracurriculars. We’re about tailoring them to reflect your unique interests, strengths, and ambitions. Whether you’re aiming to lead the debate team, or establish a local community service initiative, we help you build out your interests in a way that shines a spotlight on who you really are.

Essays

Essays are more than just words on paper. They’re your chance to present the ‘you’ that numbers and grades can’t capture. This is where your passions, personality, and potential get to shine. However, striking the right balance between being compelling, authentic, and grammatically impeccable is a delicate art. 

Our team of seasoned coaches will help you craft essays that stand out for all the right reasons. We’ll guide you from brainstorming concepts, through multiple drafts, all the way to the polished final product. Together, we’ll ensure your essays don’t just tell your story, they sing it!

Getting in Touch with Our Brussels Based College Counselors

You bring the ambition, we’ll bring the 20 years of experience and a globally recognised team of admission pros who know the recipe for success. So, why wait? It’s time to make a triumphant leap from Brussels to Boston, Palo Alto, or New Haven.
