Career Fairs!

Career fairs are a great way to get to know more about a university; you meet representatives and quite often students that go to the university, who can provide you with a first-hand account of university life. We recently had two career fairs with local as well as with international universities, where both students and parents alike attended. 

Partnered universities (second edition!)

IHC - International Horizon College is another great partnered university right in the heart of Dubai, in Business Bay. They're partnered with University of Vermont and Rutgers university (which  both have a strong liberal arts program) as well as Symbiosis University in Pune. Want to know more?

Applying to USA?

Its important to know the required standardized testing when applying universities; and if you're applying to USA, then one of the required tests is the SAT (or even the ACT which is just as recognized as the SAT and a great option especially for science students). The SAT is a written exam that consists of three sections: critical reading, math and writing. Its absolutely vital for any student applying to the US to do their SAT/ACT. So what are you waiting for? Go do your SAT today! 

Its difficult to know what you want to do for the rest of your life; you may be good at several different fields and just not know which one to pick for a career path. Which is why Ashiya skills (located in knowledge village) is here to help; they do a series of brain analysis to help you figure out your innate intelligence and based on the results also assist you in choosing a respective career pathway. 

Above are students enjoying a wonderfully informative assembly conducted by IDP - a career counselling facility based in Dubai - talking about how our young minds should go about applying to popular higher education destinations such as the UK, USA, Canada, and Australia.
