Study in the USA from Guangzhou, China

During a recent trip to Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China, I met with hundreds of students and their parents to explain the American higher education system.  I participated in college fairs, presented at education expos, and gave lectures.

As this short video explains, there is a dearth of good information about how to study in the USA, and many misconceptions about what it means to study in the United States.

Have a look!

Audition Tape for College Admissions

As an amateur actor and singer myself, I enjoy working with students who seek a college where they can further their interests in the performing arts.

I have a client this year who is a very talented hip hop dancer, singer, and actor. He is also a very nice kid who has been more than willing to think outside the box as he has searched for the colleges that best match his interests, abilities, and aspirations. He had decided not to apply to dance, drama, or theater programs, preferring instead to find a liberal arts college with strong performing arts programs.

Many clients write in and want examples of a strong audition tape for a performing arts audition. I recommend this example to you as a good model.

Have a look and let me know what you think!  Would you want him on stage at your college or university?
