Because the Journey matters…
America education provides all students equal opportunities and an advanced learning environment that allows students to reach their aspirations.
However, this opportunity must be fully grasped, enjoyed and used to its fullest or it is a wasted opportunity. And though America may be known for its opportunistic education system,
many “International Students” that have not received the warm care or the professional and systematic support of said education system are having trouble adjusting to it and essentially feel lost.
I’m often asked what makes AEC distinctive. I always respond that AEC, with the mission of providing a comprehensive college preparation for middle and high school students.
AEC will find the right match for student’s high school and college, helped prepare them for the transition to high school and college life. Believing students are “adults in training”
AEC knows our students well, we’re able to inspire them to live up to and beyond their potential and support whatever direction they want take their learning.
As students explore and expand their capabilities and take on new challenges, they grow into with accomplished students, well-rounded individuals and global leaders.
AEC has visited many high school and college planning and admissions process. But don’t take my word for it.
I invite you to visit the AEC to see for yourself what makes AEC distinctive and such a stimulating and supportive place to learn and grow.
