AIS University Counsellor

 

Heather Julien

University and careers counselling is part of AIS’ Dream Big ethos. Our goal is to help each student turn ambition into a best-fit plan, then follow it with clarity. Guidance is delivered through one-to-one meetings, small group sessions and practical workshops, alongside visits from university representatives that bring global pathways into the classroom.

The process begins with self-discovery. Students reflect on strengths, interests and values, then use that insight to research programmes and universities with a global outlook. Counsellors coach students to compare options fairly, build a focused shortlist and map a timetable they can keep. As applications take shape, we support the essentials, from self-assessments and inventories to recommendations, transcripts and the documentation required by each institution. Throughout, the emphasis is on agency and calm, so students understand every step and feel prepared to make good decisions.

Dream Big at AIS is not only about where you go, it is about who you become on the way. When offers arrive, they are ready to choose with confidence, supported by counsellors who know them and a school that expects them to thrive.
