4 What Universities Look For Strong academic program Academic performance Well-rounded individual Strong sense of self/purpose/goals Someone who fits with their university community International students or students with international backgrounds
5 Myths and Realities You do NOT need to decide on your career before you choose a college. There are excellent colleges you have NOT heard of. You should NOT necessarily go to the most prestigious college to which you are admitted. The quality of the academic program in which you re interested may NOT be the most important characteristic when choosing a college.
6 Finding a Fit

8 Specific Factors to Consider When Trying to Find a Fit Size and enrollment Location Academic programs Cost/Affordability Campus Life Residential Life Personal Factors

10 Distance from home Geographic Setting Urban, rural, suburban Climate Transportation within and to home Family/friends nearby Location

13 Athletics what types? Student government Theater, Music, Arts Service Social scene Clubs Study Abroad Security Sense of Community Campus Life
14 Residential Life Is it a residential campus or do students commute to and from campus? What percentage of students live on campus? Do 2 nd, 3 rd, 4 th year students live on campus? Am I required to live on campus? How are roommates chosen? Food cafeteria/own kitchen? Co-ed/single sex
15 College Research is about Finding a Right School for You Finding a university is like shopping for a car or buying a house There is more than one perfect college Build a list by trying to identify schools that will help you personally where you will be comfortable but yet feel stretched Be open to new ideas and possibilities
16 Studying in North America

23 Canadian Applications Each university has its own application requirements (except Ontario) Application process is straightforward Most important factor for admission: Academic performance Students generally apply to a specific program Deadlines vary but tend to be later than in the U.S.
24
25 Latin America and Mexico Generally requires 4-5 years for Bachelor s degree depending on the field of study Some countries have special entrance exams (e.g., Chile, Ecuador, Mexico). Similar to SAT/ACT exams. Some have language proficiency exams (e.g., Brazil, Argentina) Both public and private universities & institutions exist. Costs vary. What you can study varies depending on the institution. Admission requirements vary. Check individual university. Applications are not centralized.
26 Public and Private Universities Students need to have received the Panamanian Diploma to be eligible for admission Some majors require entrance exams (e.g., medicine) Admission decisions are based on exam performance and HS academic performance Panamá
27 Panamá Florida State University & University of Louisville Can complete full Bachelor s in Panama or do 2+2 program final 2 years in US (at reduced tuition rate) Admission requirements are less stringent than FSU in the US Cost effective. General education requirements completed in Panama Numerous degrees (above and beyond Business)
28 Studying in the UK andeurope
29 Higher Education in UK More than 100 universities Other colleges and institutions offering undergraduate courses Independent, self-governing bodies Students apply through UCAS website October 15th deadline for certain programs (i.e. Cambridge and Oxford, medicine, dentistry, and vet science)
30 Characteristics of a UK/European Education Normally three years for a Bachelor degree Students select a particular course when they apply Students normally stay at the same university for the whole degree program Most universities require the IB Diploma
31 Admission Considerations UK Students receive a conditional offer from the university which normally includes both overall IB score and specific IB scores in individual subjects The university websites / UCAS give an indication of the likely offers for each university and course but these are only guidelines for applicants It is important to check the specific requirements for individual courses/majors regarding which subjects are needed and likely IB scores which will be required
32 Admission Considerations UK/Europe IB Diploma points (e.g. a total of 32 points) Specific subject requirements (e.g. including a 6 in Chemistry at Higher Level) English language requirement e.g., TOEFL test, IB English Specific entry tests (e.g. BMAT or UKCAT for medicine) Vary from course to course and university to university do your research!
33 Admission Considerations in other European Countries The application process varies from country to country, and university to university Check individual websites for specific admission requirements, exams, language proficiencies Check the IB website for information about IB acceptance in different countries
34 North American-Style Universities in Europe Increasing number of US-style Universities Have US accreditation from parent university or government recognition in host country Goal educating students to be globally minded and appreciate interdependence Liberal arts/science curriculum. Majors in business, economics, engineering, sciences, humanities Requirements for admission vary with the university
35 Who? What? Where? When? How? The Specifics
36 Role of the Student This is your process to lead and manage. Maintain good grades. Study for exams. Be active in extracurricular activities. Stay balanced. Research colleges. Identify choices based on interests, abilities, and goals. Write college essays/personal statement. Ask 2 teachers for letters of recommendation. Complete the applications. Make sure you know what each university requires including supplemental material. Be aware of deadlines. Remember academic performance is critical.
37 Where to find Information Use multiple sources General University Search websites University websites Mr. Scoggin and Ms. Kuziel Reference material in the ISP library Parents, teachers, family friends, individuals who are working in careers of interest Open house days, college fairs, college visits Former students who have gone, or are going to a university
38 General Search Sites US Canada UK Worldwide -13,000 schools in 190 countries IB Will provide information on other countries and IB diploma recognition

43 SAT and ACT Which one should I take? Two very different tests but with the same purpose to provide an estimate of first-year college academic performance. Both exams are accepted by universities for admissions. Colleges use standardized tests in a variety of ways, and it varies from school to school. More than 800 schools in the U.S. are test optional.
44 ACT content based SAT problem solving ACT assesses what students should already know by measuring what a student has learned in school. (More like an achievement test) Test Format: English, Mathematics, Reading, Science Reasoning, and (optional) Writing Test. Scoring: No scoring penalty. Format encourages guessing. ACT Writing Test in some cases acts as a substitute for SAT Subject Test requirement. SAT attempts to measure critical thinking ability, particularly in the area of problem solving, as well as test-taking skills. (More like an aptitude test). Test format: Critical Reading, Writing, and Mathematics equally weighted. Scoring: Scoring is adjusted for incorrect responses (1/4 credit). SAT Subject Tests: hour-long, content-based tests that allow you to showcase achievement in specific subject areas where you excel. Our Advice: Take BOTH tests!
45 Class of 2016 College Planning Schedule To do: 11 th Grade Parent Coffee (done!)

If applying to the U.S., get started on your college applications Brainstorm your application essays /personal statements (several drafts = high quality) Review and fine tune your college list. Continue your research. When traveling, visit a college or university!
46 Role of the Parent Support your son or daughter. Offer suggestions and ideas. Ask questions. Offer things to think about. Help your son or daughter be organized. Remember that it s your child who is going to college, not you. Stay balanced. Enjoy time together. Remember that there are many fits for your son/daughter.
