Our commitment to our students extends beyond the traditional boundaries of counselling. At Deira International School, we provide a holistic support system that guides students through every aspect of their career exploration and university application process:
- Career Exploration with a Global Perspective: We encourage students to explore diverse career options through internships, job shadowing, and partnerships with leading global businesses, alongside the Al Futtaim network of companies. These experiences are invaluable in helping students make informed decisions about their future careers and ensuring their academic choices align with their long-term goals.
- Strategic Application Guidance: Our counsellors provide in-depth support throughout the university application process, helping students craft compelling personal statements, prepare for rigorous interviews, and compile all necessary documentation. We specialise in guiding students through the application processes of elite institutions, ensuring they stand out in a highly competitive field.
- Alumni Network & Mentorship: Our extensive alumni network offers current students access to invaluable insights and mentorship from former students who have successfully gained admission to top universities worldwide. This network serves as a crucial resource, providing guidance and support throughout the application process and beyond.
- Scholarship & Financial Aid Navigation: We assist students in identifying and securing scholarships and financial aid, ensuring that financial considerations do not impede their ability to attend the world’s best universities. Our counsellors are well-versed in the financial aid processes of elite institutions and provide tailored advice to each student.
