At HOPAC, teachers, students and parents work as a team to equip students to apply to the best university that will suit them academically, financially, and socially. Students discover where in the world (literally) they would like to study. While the majority of students study in the United States, United Kingdom and Canada, every year we have students going to other countries as well such as Netherlands, South Africa, Australia, Mauritius, South Korea, Germany and others. Students have been able to attain places at leading colleges and universities around the world including Oxford University, Yale, Stanford, Columbia and the University of Pennsylvania.
Students work closely with the Academic Counselor and College Counselor to prepare for ACT/SAT testing, English Proficiency testing and essay writing. This preparation along with encouraged involvement in HOPAC’s service-learning, leadership, sports, and/or arts help students to not only present themselves well to a wide range of universities around the world but helps to develop HOPAC students into well-rounded people with gifts and interests outside of just academics.
