Academic Planning & Consulting

There are shortcuts to your success, but you need to plan ahead.

You understand that universities care about both academics and extracurricular activities, but to what extent? Ask yourself these questions.

  1. Do I know which university and faculty fit my kids? How should they select target universities and/or faculties?
  2. Do I know which courses add more weight to students’ university applications?
  3. Do I know which extracurricular activities students should focus on?

Each student is unique, requiring dedicated planning advice. We provide G8-11 students with support on

  1. Personal brand building
  2. Course and exam selections
  3. Extracurricular activities
  4. Mentorship and workshops on soft skills and career readiness
  5. Prepare for a successful career path by providing guidance, skill development, and opportunities to explore their potential in various fields

We incorporate a feedback loop, so we can constantly monitor their progress and make sure they align with their goals.

How Are We Different?

 

Emphasize Career Readiness

Our Planning Service focuses on empowering students to achieve career readiness. Under the guidance of our NCDA-accredited (National Career Development Association) career service expert, students receive personalized support in exploring various career pathways and identifying the most suitable path for their future. Through in-depth assessments, skill development, and expert guidance, we help students align their interests and strengths with potential career opportunities.

Positive Mentorship

Students in academic planning are automatically enrolled in the Giraffe Mentorship program. We prioritize students’ interests, understand their aspirations and fears, and develop their soft skills to foster positive changes. We improve their communication, presentation, teamwork, and networking skills. We help them build resumes and personal profiles. By growing their emotional intelligence, we are proud to support their success.

Strong Personal Branding

We design unique brands for students based on their career paths and major selections. Strong personal brands connect their courses, extracurriculars, and goals, help them build credibility with admission officers, and allow them to stand out from the crowd.

Giraffe Students in Their Extracurricular Activities

“I am a big brain. I took six AP exams, took SAT, participated in IB at Richmond Secondary. I achieved outstanding results with a lot of extracurricular activities. However, all my Ivy applications were rejected. So sad. Maybe my approach was wrong in the beginning.” – Isabella C.

 

“I heard about different rumors of how to get into an Ivy. Everyone has a different idea. However, Giraffe helped me plan my academics and activities. I only took those necessary for me. Therefore, I can save my time and stay focused on my schedule. That’s how I received an offer from Cornell.” – Francis Z.

 

Do you want to avoid Isabella’s mistakes? Do you want your kid to enjoy the same success as Francis’s?
