ASIAN STUDENTS STRATEGY MAYBE INCORRECT WHEN IT COMES TO THE COLLEGE ADMISSIONS PROCESS

 Today,  the Assoicated Press reported that many Asian applicants are NOT checking the Asian box in fear of being rejected out of schools they are applying to.

The competition today in colleges and universities is intense and students need to figure out a way for schools to recognize them beyond what their ethic background is.  If a school right for a student, they are most likely going to be accepted.  There are over 4,000 colleges and universities in the U.S. (7,000 schools when you factor in for profits, but those are not schools that we encourage students to apply to for a number of reasons).

Asian Students, if they are applying from out of the country as foreigners, or if they were born in the U.S. and seeking admissions to a U.S. School as a legal U.S. Resident living out of the country, they need to seek out a college admissions consultant who is trained and has knowledge as to the fears and anxieties a foreign student not only goes through, but knows the schools, can match schools with their clients, and can assist student in the financial aid process.

We are one of those consulting companies that not only assist student here in the U.S. with getting into top tier schools like Harvard, Yale, Brown, Cornell, USC, UCLA, Stanford, etc, but we also work with students who are looking to play sports in Division I and II schools for scholarship funds, Students who are challenged with learning differences such as ADD, ADHD, Asperger's and Autism, Gap Year Students, AVID, and International Students seeking admissions into schools here in the U.S.

Finding schools which are right for you, does not mean they are #1 or #2 on the US News List of the BEST schools, it does not mean that they have the best football team, nor does it mean that it is the school your boyfriend or girlfriend will do well at... it is the place where you are going to grow and explore and have the 4 years to live life to the fullest as a new young adult.

This article is very interesting to me, but it also says that these students do not have the resources and are being coached in the wrong fashion by some Asian or Indian Agents looking to collect fees--- having no concern for the families they represent.  It is really important that if families have questions they seek out professional assistance from the U.S.

If you are in need of assistance to get into colleges and universities in the U.S. feel free to contact our office and get a free consultation on how we can assist you and your family reach your goals.
