University Strategy
“No two countries in Europe share the same admissions system. Even in the same city, two schools may follow entirely different rules.”
Melissa M., Senior EU Strategist
How We Help
Our EU team keeps track of every detail so you don’t have to.
01
Our strategists know top European universities like Bocconi, Maastricht, and LUISS — because they’ve helped students gain admission year after year.
02
Whether your child wants to study medicine in Italy or business in the Netherlands, they’ll work with someone who knows how that process works.
03
At Crimson, we build a custom plan to align your child’s strengths and goals with each university’s requirements.

Admission Test Preparation
Even the most capable students can stumble on European admissions tests — not for lack of ability, but for lack of preparation.
“Many strong students miss out on top European universities—not due to lack of potential, but because they’re blindsided by unfamiliar exams like the IMAT, Bocconi Test, and PCE. By the time they realise, it’s often too late to catch up.”
Gianna S., Senior EU Strategist
How We Help
Our exam-specific prep led by EU experts gives your child the confidence and strategy to succeed on challenging tests.
01
Specialist Tutors for Exams
IMAT, PCE, HUMAT, Bocconi Test, and more — our tutors know these inside out.
02
Fast and Focused Preparation
Personalised crash courses help your child make quick progress when every week counts.
03
Tailored Strategies
No wasted time. Your child’s plan focuses only on what their exam actually tests.
Essay Development
To get into top EU universities, your child has to submit compelling motivation letters. Each programme has completely different expectations for this letter. Even the most accomplished students have trouble expressing their strengths in a way that resonates with each university.
“Applying to multiple European universities means mastering a wide range of essays. Strong writing can make or break an application.”
Scott M., Senior EU Strategist
How We Help
Crimson pairs your child with elite essay mentors — published authors, top-university grads, and experienced application experts — who specialise in European admissions.

Interview Prep and Portfolio Development
The work isn’t over when the essays are done and the forms are submitted. Weak interviews, portfolios, or language proficiency can cost your child an offer.
How We Help
01
Interview Preparation
Your child works 1:1 with admissions experts to build confidence and master university-specific interview styles
02
Portfolio Development
Experts help your child build a standout portfolio for creative or academic subjects.

Scholarship and Financial Aid Tutoring
Many families rule out top European universities because of cost, but the funding is out there. The challenge is navigating a web of country-specific, university-based, merit-based, and need-based scholarships.
“The biggest barrier to scholarships isn’t competition, it’s information. Most students assume funding isn’t available when it actually is. Finding it, understanding it, and winning it takes real expertise.”
Viktor T. EU Strategy Consultant
How We Help
01
Targeted Scholarship Matching
We identify funding opportunities based on your child’s background and goals, including scholarships from your home country.
02

EU Medicine Admissions
Applying to medical school in Europe can be overwhelming, since each university has its own timeline and criteria. One missed detail can cost your child their spot.
“Studying medicine in Europe is absolutely possible, but many students give up due to unfamiliar exams, confusing paperwork, or unexpected requirements.”
Sharmi H., Medicine Senior EU Strategist
How We Help
We guide your child through every piece of the EU med school puzzle.
01
Tailored University Matching
We recommend universities that align with your child’s academic profile, career goals, and language preferences.

Submission Guidance
We help with document requirements, translations, deadlines, and everything else you need to submit a competitive application.
“I wouldn’t have made it without Crimson. I have friends who have great academic grades but did not have any Extracurricular Activities. They now have to wait another year to apply again. Crimson helped me every step of the way.”
Helen W. University of Navarra Medical School, Spain, Class of 2028, Former Crimson Student.
Spain Admissions
“If you don’t speak Spanish, applying to universities in Spain can feel impossible. The documents and communications are all in Spanish. Even a little misunderstanding can cause huge delays.”
Raquel P., Spanish speaking Senior EU strategist
How We Help
Our Spanish-speaking experts bridge the gap so your child can focus on success, not paperwork.
- Direct Access to Admissions Offices: We handle communications with universities to eliminate translation issues and delays.
- Complete Document Support: We help you prepare and submit everything from PCE registration to apostilles and homologation forms.

- PCE Exam Prep That Works: With expert tutors, mock exams, and subject-specific support, your child will be ready to earn the most competitive entry scores.
Why PCE Preparation Matters
- Boosts Your Child’s Chances: Top PCE scores can raise your admission ranking considerably.
- Critical for Competitive Majors: Medicine, Engineering, and Business often require top scores in specific PCE subjects.
- No Surprises: Without preparation, your child may be caught off guard by the exam’s expectations and structure.
- Stay Ahead of Deadlines: We plan ahead to make sure your child is ready for every PCE milestone.
