About this event
Want to build a path towards a top university entry? The time to start is now! “What it Takes to Reach Your Dreams” aims to give you an idea of what students should be doing to secure their spot in institutions like Oxford, Cambridge, Ivy Leagues and other Top Universities.
This talk is suitable for ages 14 and above to understand how to start aiming high and achieving a place at the best universities in the world. All are welcomed to participate. We will also be conducting a question and answer session.
Why join our talk?
We have a proven track record with more than 5 years of experience in guiding students through the top university admissions process and having our students get placed in Harvard, Cambridge and London School of Economics in 2021. Our tutors are mostly from Oxbridge & Ivy Leagues themselves, so they are familiar with the challenges and obstacles that most students face.
Our philosophy goes beyond just academics – we understand that character and skills development are just as vital to ensure that these individuals get to thrive even in the most challenging environment.
