Our Approach
We assess each individual applicant for admissions success from multiple perspectives using the ApplyAid Success FactorsTM and we select the right colleges, universities and graduate schools for application according to the applicant's academic aspirations, abilities and attributes.
The ApplyAid Success FactorsTM are a set of personal qualities, based on our counselors' experience, that admissions officers at the top US colleges, universities, and graduate schools would look for in successful applicants:
● Maturity - intellectual and emotional
● Academic ability and achievement, productive class participation
● Poise, self-confidence, sense of purpose, independence
● Leadership, dedication, team play
● Enthusiasm, energy, motivation and initiative
● Work ethic, discipline, integrity, responsibility, professionalism
● Originality and creativity
● Open-mindedness, curiosity, with critical thinking
● Diversity, concern for others, sensitivity to the outside world
ApplyAid advises each individual applicant to highlight the above personal qualities, if available, throughout the application process. If there is still a year or two before application, the applicant should also aim at developing and cultivating such personal qualities in his or her university or graduate school planning.
In selecting the right school to apply to, ApplyAid also takes into account other factors including the geographical or regional location, school size, academic programs, research opportunities, career preparation, campus life and environment. The goal is to expand the options available and achieve admission to the best possible college, university or graduate school of one's choice.
