University Guidance at Nord Anglia International School Shanghai Pudong

Higher Education preparation can sometimes feel like an insurmountable ascent of selecting locations, sifting through world rankings, finalising predicted grades and sitting examinations when your child is in their final years of secondary school. However, many renowned universities suggest that the best preparation comes early on: nurturing your child's inquiring nature, stimulating their interests and growing their emotional intelligence.

At NAIS Pudong, this early preparation is implicitly inbuilt in our KS3 English Curriculum and through strategic selection of after school activities (ASAs) that strengthen students’ portfolio for elevating our students from the rest of the applicants. We have launched Scholars Meet and University Entrance Test preparation ASAs to explicitly support students through building robust footprint of participating in various academic competitions and for preparing various entrance tests including SAT/ACT for the US university applications.

Our counselling service empowers research, guidance on writing personal statements and essays, providing curated reference letters that make students stand out in the crowd, provide transcripts and support with shortlisting the choices, to name some. NAIS Pudong is a registered center for administering SAT and ACT, our subject specialists support various entrance test preparations depending on students’ intended destination and course.
