RENEE Zhang

“With the help of EF Academy staff, I was able to score four As on my A-level exams, and earn a distinction on my AEA paper. Their personal attention and commitment to helping me master even the most difficult concepts is what helped set me apart from other university candidates and gain admission to one of the top universities in the entire world.”

MIMMI Lindquist

“The teachers at EF Academy take a personal interest in your goals, and they constantly encourage you to turn them into reality. They helped me arrange an internship, get involved in student government, and take on other leadership roles that would set me apart in the U.S. university admission process. Just as importantly, they helped me find a university that is a perfect fit for me. I can’t imagine that happening at any other school.”

“The small class size is one of the best things about EF Academy because it allowed for more one-to-one

interaction with my teachers. The same was true for my university adviser. He offered as many one-to-one sessions

as I needed. I know I would not have had that kind of continuous support at my home school in Russia.”

ALINA SHAPOVALENKO

“U.S. universities want students who are well-rounded. That’s why the International

Baccalaureate Diploma at EF Academy was so ideal for me. It gave me an excellent

academic foundation, and the chance to gain experiences in the real world.”

DUC TAM NGUYEN

“Outside of the coursework, my university adviser helped me prepare my personal statement and walked me

through the application process step-by-step. She also helped me determine which universities were most suitable for me. The personal attention makes a

very big difference.”

SINING LIU

“My teachers did more than lecture. They organized trial exams, scheduled study weeks to make sure

we had extra time for revision, and even took time to advise me on my essay. Because of their extra

support, I was truly prepared for my A-level exams.”

“During my two years in the A-level program at EF Academy Torbay, I studied Maths, Further Maths, Physics, and Economics. I scored A*s on each of my exams, including my extended project and due to my top scores received offers from Cambridge (No. 1), Warwick (No. 6), UCL (No. 8), and Bath (No. 10). One of the best things about EF is that if you ask anyone for help, they will help you. There is little in life you can’t achieve with that kind of support.”
