Applying for entry to an American College can be a long and sometimes complex process. That's why we have developed the PREPSKILLS® US College Admissions Workshop. We help to ensure that students are prepared to meet all requirements demanded of the schools they wish to apply. In some cases prep for admission can take as long as two or three years, especially if a student has written the PSAT.

PREPSKILLS® US College Admissions Workshop can help answer questions like:

  • how do colleges determine who is accepted?
  • what sort of funding is available for Canadian students?
  • what's the difference between early decision and early action admissions?
  • what are Ivy League schools looking for?
  • what's the admission process for student athletes?

To provide you with answers to all of these questions (and more), PREPSKILLS® has developed the PREPSKILLS® U.S. College Admissions Workshop.

Applying for entry to an American college is a two-year process, and it can be a three-year process if you decide to take the PSAT! It's best to be prepared ahead of time, rather than finding yourself overwhelmed by obligations, stipulations, and specific requirements that you can't meet in Grade 12.

Ensure that you are prepared to submit your application successfully.
