After years of working for bigger agencies and universities, we came to the conclusion that student advising should prioritize service over business. We started our organization with that principle in mind. Distinguished for our boutique service and a deep understanding of the American education system, Cogito has built a strong reputation as the best educational advising organization in the USA. Because of that, many universities and high schools partner with us in search of their future students. We have personal experience applying to America’s top-ranked universities and elite prep schools. In addition, we connect international students with financial aid and scholarship opportunities.

Nat Nguyen, student

Wietnam

“Z pomocą doradców GRCC i personelu GRCC International Program udało mi się zostać przyjętym na University of California w Berkeley, aby studiować inżynierię chemiczną i materiałoznawstwo. Patrząc wstecz do pierwszego dnia, w którym postawiłem stopę w USA, jestem naprawdę wdzięczny za możliwość poznania wszystkich wspaniałych ludzi, którzy mnie zainspirowali, pomogli mi i zachęcili do robienia rzeczy, które teraz robię.”

Milena, student

“Nasz nauczyciel, Jon, był najlepszym nauczycielem, jakiego kiedykolwiek miałem!

Na przykład wykonaliśmy niesamowite ćwiczenia, w których dwie osoby mówiły w tym samym czasie. Nigdy wcześniej tak się nie śmiałam w klasie. Chciałbym mieć takiego nauczyciela w moim liceum. W ciągu tych 3 tygodni nauczyłem się więcej niż przez cały rok nauki angielskiego w Polsce!”

Monika K., uczeń liceum

“Jestem absolutnie zachwycony moją szkołą Thornton Academy! Jest to zdecydowanie bardzo wymagające akademicko, zwłaszcza, że wybrałem wiele trudnych przedmiotów. Teraz jestem też bardzo zadowolona, że wybrałem zakwaterowanie w akademiku w porównaniu z rodziną goszczącą. Daje o wiele więcej możliwości, aby w pełni zanurzyć się w kampusie i po prostu nawiązuję tu więcej przyjaciół. Jest też tak ciepło jak w prawdziwych rodzinach, ponieważ nauczyciele ze współmałżonkiem i dziećmi mieszkają w naszych akademikach, ale we własnych mieszkaniach 4 rodziny w akademiku. Naprawdę to najlepszy wybór i dziękuję za przekonanie mnie! Nadal mam dużo prywatności z przyjaciółmi, a mimo to spotykam się z rodzinami nauczycieli, jem z nimi od czasu do czasu – uwielbiam to! Ponadto Thornton Academy ma bardzo inteligentną lokalizację – poza miastem, więc mamy tutaj własną społeczność, ale jednocześnie możemy dotrzeć do Portland w weekendy!

Jak dotąd kocham moją szkołę i z przyjemnością polecę ją innym studentom, którzy chcą mieć większą szkołę ze świetnymi naukowcami!”

Irina, student uniwersytetu

“Zawsze chciałem studiować w USA, ale nie wiedziałem, od czego zacząć. Cogito pomogło mi stworzyć listę uniwersytetów, wyjaśniło, jakie egzaminy muszę zdawać i pomogło mi w uzyskaniu stypendiów. Obecnie studiuję na Lehigh University w PA która znajduje się w pierwszej setce. Proces aplikacyjny dla szkół amerykańskich jest skomplikowany ze względu na wszystkie egzaminy SAT, ACT, egzaminy językowe i setki szkół. Sama nie byłabym w stanie tego wszystkiego rozgryźć. Miałem naprawdę szczęście, że znajdź Cogito.

Moja rada dla wszystkich studentów zagranicznych to: aplikuj wcześnie, skontaktuj się z Cogito i miej realistyczne oczekiwania.”

Ana N., student

Rosja

“Moim celem była poprawa wyniku SSAT i znalezienie programu, który poszerzy moje zainteresowanie psychologią. Chciałem dostać się do pierwszej piątki szkół z internatem, a Cogito pomogło mi osiągnąć ten cel. W tym roku jestem w Phillips Academy Andover Pomogli mi również poprawić mój wynik z 74 do 95. Poza szkołą ten program pomógł pogłębić moje zainteresowania psychologią, łącząc mnie z mentorem z wydziału psychologii Harvardu i zapisując się tam na różne eksperymenty, a także wprowadzając mnie na Mass Innovation Nights w MIT.”

Aleksandar D., student

Chorwacja

“Do tej pory wszystko było prawie idealne. Santa Barbara jest piękna, góry, centrum i plaża są cudowne. Mieszkanie jest ogromne, dobrze wyposażone i dobrze wygląda. dobra mieszanka chłopców i dziewczynek, a także mnóstwo imprez. Tak więc dotychczasowe doświadczenie jest niesamowite i niespodziewanie wcale nie tęsknię za domem”.
