Career Planning Calendar

Higher Education abroad is a life changing experience so it is very important to invest quality time and effort to make the right decision for your future. Careers Guidance Counsellors are experts who have helped hundreds of students like you get into their top choice universities. Getting selected by the right institution is much harder than it used to be, and the earlier you can start thinking about it the better. Don’t forget you have the whole world to choose from, but to be sure of success you need to understand your own skills and natural aptitude as well as what your favourite university is looking for. Our Guidance Consultants have friends and connections in admissions offices worldwide, so we can help give you the inside track on what you need to do to get selected. As a quick starter have a look at the year planner below to see what stage you could be at right now.
