Things that high school seniors should know.
Research on university admission requirements.
Each country and university has its own specific admission requirements. For example:
- United States: Standardized tests like SAT/ACT, a strong GPA, and extracurricular activities are some of the most important factors.
- Canada: Academic transcripts, proof of English language proficiency (such as IELTS/TOEFL), and a personal statement are required.
- Europe: Many universities have specific prerequisites, with less emphasis on standardized tests. In some cases, proficiency in the host country’s language is also required.
