An unparalleled precedent was set with three top Singapore universities such as the National University of Singapore (NUS), Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and Singapore Management University offering admission to nearly 50% of the CBSE graduates (and 25% of the IBDP graduates). Offers of admission for the CBSE 2012 batch of GIIS graduates in Singapore also included universities from USA, UK, Canada and India.
Over the years, each graduating batch of GIIS students has obtained excellent university placements, a testimony to the GIIS integrated approach to learning and to the support and guidance from the GIIS Career Counselling Cell. Making informed choices in consultation with parents and teachers has also guided them towards the right direction.
As Mr Rajiv Vasudeva, GIIS (Singapore) Country Director puts it: "The Global School Nine Gems model is the key differentiator which has helped GIIS students achieve their maximum potential. We also ensure that our students get the best mentoring from a highly qualified faculty to prepare themselves for competitive exams. The career counselling at school helps students and their parents make informed decision for their higher studies."
"At GIIS Career Counselling Cell, students are guided all the way through the application procedure which includes preparation of transcripts, recommendation letters, essays and personal statement," says Ms Seema Kaushik, GIIS Career Counsellor Our students have been placed among the top universities in USA, UK, Canada, Australia, Hong Kong, Singapore and India. GIIS alumni also serve as mentors to the current students."
The excellent rapport shared by the counselling department with prestigious universities worldwide and their admissions officers ensure regular updates and the latest information on the University application and admission process. Also, each year several GIIS campuses host presentations by several prestigious colleges from Europe, America, Canada, Australia, Singapore, Middle East and India throughout the year for Junior college students. These presentations facilitate the students to make informed decisions about their preferred careers as well as understand the application and admission process. |
