DPS-MIS Career Counselling

ATTN : CLASS XI - XII PARENTS - UNIVERSITY FAIR ON 19-OCT
Our goal is to help students find, and get into the ideal college for them
The Academic Counselor provides advice on any college admissions topic

PURPOSE

Our goal is to help students find, and get into the ideal college for them. We view the college preparation period as a time for skill-set development. Specifically, we help to prepare students for the academic demands of college, to assist students in gaining practical experience exposing the students to additional academic and extracurricular areas in order to ameliorate any potential weaknesses.

Firstly, the college admissions process is essentially an exercise in students marketing themselves to colleges. Secondly, we firmly believes that students should have the opportunity to learn about different careers and explore their interests before their significant investment in University/college begins. The Academic Counselor provides advice on any college admissions topic, including how students can meet their college admission goals, finding the perfect college for each student, strategizing how to get into students' top-choice schools, brainstorming and editing college application essays, college interview preparation, and more
