LIFE AFTER LEAF ACADEMY
After graduating from LEAF Academy, our students will become part of a large, vibrant and diverse network of LEAF programs alumni, which can become an important resource for years to come.
Our Careers & University Guidance Counselors are here to help students evaluate their future options, and to choose, plan, prepare, and embark on their journey after LEAF Academy.
LALA Guidance program focuses mainly on:
-
Helping students identify their unique interests, talents, skills, and work preferences, and guiding them through the career planning process
-
Providing information and advice on topics such as: careers, internships, summer programs, GAP Year, AP course choices, admissions & standardized testing, and much more
-
Assisting students with the search for relevant scholarship opportunities, suitable programs of study, and best-fit higher education options worldwide

Supporting students in all aspects of the university planning & application process, ensuring they submit the best possible application(s) to the institution(s) of their choice
