The US or Canada, or both?
If you’re an ambitious student and looking to the US for a top university education then you’d be wise to consider Canada too!
Both locations have some incredible institutions on offer, the US have the prestigious Ivy League, Stanford and MIT and Canada have McGill, University of Toronto and University of British Columbia (UBC).
Both options will offer academic excellence, incredible facilities and incomparable career prospects but the Canadian universities come with the extra perk of a higher acceptance rate - an average of 40% vs 7%.
If you’re undecided or thinking of applying to both this is the webinar for you. We have two of our expert Crimson Strategists, Fiona and Noah, who went to Canadian and US universities, joining us on the night to let us in on the secrets of admission for both locations and what admissions officers are looking for.
You will learn:
- The distinguishing features of top universities in the US and Canada
- What type of students top Canadian universities are looking for
- Who Ivy League Admissions Officers admit
- A breakdown of the Canadian and US application processes
- Spotlight on 3 top schools from both the US and Canada
There will be a live Q&A at the end of this webinar, so bring your questions to the table!
How Crimson can help
Applying to top universities is a difficult and stressful task which is why so many students seek external support.
Each of our programmes are tailored to the student and are delivered by a carefully selected team of mentors who provide focussed support with each and every aspect of the process - from university selection to essay writing and SAT preparation.
By signing up for this webinar you will get a 1:1 university strategy meeting for you and your child with one of our expert Academic Advisors. They will review your child’s academic and extracurricular profile, provide tailored guidance as to suitable university pathways and outline what they need to do to achieve their goals.
