An Overview of Hong Kong College Admissions Counseling
Welcome to the city where east meets west, where tradition intertwines with innovation, and where skyscrapers and ancient temples share the skyline. This is Hong Kong – a lively metropolis that blends vibrant cultural heritage with cutting-edge dynamism. In such a city, education thrives, with top-tier schools like the Hong Kong International School (HKIS) and the esteemed Diocesan Schools (DGS and DBS), producing students ready to make a mark on the world.
Students here are used to dazzling the world with their brilliance. Each year Hong Kong’s top students throw their hats in the ring to compete for limited spots at top colleges in the US.
