College Counseling

Personalized College Counseling for High School Students

At DIS, students in grades 9 through 12 receive support from a dedicated College Counseling team. This team collaborates with each student to create a customized four-year plan that emphasizes their strengths and interests, guiding them through the college and financial aid application processes in the U.S. and internationally.

DIS hosts visits from leading universities that recognize the value of our students' multilingual abilities, intercultural skills, and internationally respected diploma programs. As a result, our students consistently achieve outstanding outcomes, including a 100% university matriculation rate.

Our counseling process involves personalized discussions, strategic planning, and comprehensive guidance that help students clearly define their educational goals. By the time they receive their admission offers, they already understand their strengths, interests, and long-term aspirations—empowering them to choose a college that best fits their needs and setting a solid foundation for their academic journey.

The DIS College Counseling team is committed to highlighting each student's unique ambitions, interests, and achievements. This personalized approach not only enhances their applications but also prepares them for impactful contributions to academia and the global community.
