In depth questionnaire to fully understand our students based on their personality, hobbies, interests, financial situation, academic background, career goals, plus other characteristics as well as academic strengths and areas for improvement.

College Planning and Selection

With well over 4,500 educational institutions within the United States, college selection could be overwhelming. DLS Overseas admissions advisers will review and evaluate the student’s academic background and test scores narrowing down the list to 5-10 universities that would be a good match.

Entrance Exam Counseling

Before the application process begins, we will provide guidance as well as ensure that our clients have successfully completed all college entrance requirements. These requirements can vary greatly from institution to institution, the academic level of the students, and academic program choices.

English Language Placement and Conditional Admission

Students who need to improve their English language skills in order to meet the minimum TOEFL or IELTS requirements must take intensive English classes first. Many universities offer conditional admission and allow students to continue as degree-seeking students as soon as they receive the minimum required test score. DLS Overseas Overseas advisers will assist students in identifying a good fit university with a strong intensive English language program.

Admission and Application Support

DLS Overseas Overseas advisers discuss each selected university’s admission requirements, steps, documents required, and application timelines.

Essay and Personal Statement Review

Depending on the University of Choice, an essay and/or personal statement may be required. While students are responsible for completing this important prerequisite, our highly knowledgeable staff will review and make suggestions to make these documents as strong as possible.

Document Preparation and Submission

This is the final stage of the application process. We ensure that all required documents have been compiled, submitted, and received by the universities. We will follow up with each of the universities to make sure that all documents have been received.

Application Follow-Up
