London Admissions Counseling

Welcome to London, a city where the weather changes quicker than fashion trends and the buzz of ambition echoes louder than the chimes of Big Ben. Whether you’re from the prestigious halls of Westminster School, Eton College, or any other top school you’ve probably dreamt of attending top colleges that match the grandeur of London’s illustrious history like most students here do. 

As a Londoner, you’re no stranger to navigating vast networks – from the sprawling underground to the winding lanes of the city’s rich history. College applications, much like your hometown, can present a maze of opportunity. 

However, it can be exhausting to navigate the application process on your own and many international students end up burnt out trying to do that. That’s where we, at IvySummit, step in. Our goal is to help showcase your personal and academic journey in the most compelling way possible.

London

Our Process

We know what you’re thinking: there’s a list as long as the River Thames of to-dos, applications, essays, deadlines, interviews etc. Not to mention, the challenge of making sure your application stands out amidst thousands of other equally talented candidates. 

Yes, we know it’s not a walk in the Park.

But here’s where we shine. With our 20-year expertise and a team that boasts former admissions officers and alumni from Ivy Leagues and top colleges, we’ve decoded the ‘Underground map’ of college applications. Our process and our strategy are designed to guide international students from London through the maze of college admissions, ensuring you’re not just another face in the crowd.

Guiding a Timeline

Navigating the college application process without a clear timeline can feel like getting lost in the London Underground at rush hour. It’s a labyrinth of deadlines, forms, essays, and more that can easily turn a promising application season into a stressful ordeal. Missing just one deadline or forgetting an important form can derail your journey.

But fret not, at IvySummit, we specialize in acting as your personal navigators, ensuring you’re always ahead of the clock, not chasing it. Our tailored high school timelines integrate seamlessly with your academic and personal commitments, and our strategic planning leaves no room for overlooked deadlines or last-minute panics.

Expanding Extra Curriculars

At IvySummit, we help you build out your extracurricular interests to reflect not just your varied passions but also showcase the value you would bring to a campus community. They’re more than just a line on your application, your extracurriculars tell a story – your story. Whether it’s refining your leadership skills in a community service role or immersing yourself in an exciting research project, we guide you in transforming your interests into compelling narratives.

Essays

Crafting the perfect college essay isn’t simple. You need to convey your story, your passion, and your individuality through words that resonate with the admissions officers. 

Here’s where many students fumble – they believe they need an epic tale or a grand achievement to make an impact. But more often than not, it’s the unique perspective of your everyday life, your thoughts, your dreams, that really makes a compelling story.

We will help you navigate the nuances of essay writing – from brainstorming impactful ideas to fine-tuning your final draft, ensuring your essays reflect the best version of you.

So why try to tackle the elusive art of essay writing alone when expert help is at your fingertips?

Building a College List

Choosing a college isn’t like picking your favorite tube station in London; it’s less about convenience and more about finding the right fit. Often, students focus too much on brand names or being dazzled by the glitz of certain universities, kinda like getting caught up in the sparkle of the London Eye on a clear night.

We’ll help you steer you away from common pitfalls and help you in building a college list that aligns with your academic goals, personal interests, and career aspirations. Whether you see yourself amidst the ivy-covered walls of an Ivy League or innovating in the tech labs of Stanford, we ensure that your college list is as tailor-made as a Savile Row suit.
