Applying to university for admission and scholarships is a challenging process for students.
Each university has its own specific requirements and deadlines. Without paying meticulous attention to the process and the details, students can easily miss being admitted into their dream university and getting the awards they deserve.
At CIC, each graduating student is assigned an experienced UPO Counsellor. With compassion and devotion, the counsellor takes the student through our comprehensive University Placement process with a plan that is custom-made to the student’s needs and desires. This maximizes the chances of the students’ successful admission to their dreamed universities based on their academic performance. The following chart highlights how it works.
Parents have peace of mind as they are kept informed of the student’s university choices and the application status via the on-line ezReport Card.
