University Guidance

Our students are provided with individualized support from our University Counsellor in their choice and preparation for university and college applications.  

Our University Counsellor works with IB students from the very start of their high school experience to ensure they are aware of what learning pathways are available to them and to help them with subject choices for IB that are best suited to their career goals and academic strengths. Periodic one-on-one counselling sessions are held with DP (Grade 11 and 12) students and parents to advise and provide comprehensive support in the university application process.

CSM encourages all MYP and DP students to take part in the various events that take place throughout the year, such as university fairs, workshops and webinars.

Further individual guidance is provided for the following activities:

  • Understanding the differences between admissions procedures and requirements for worldwide university destinations
  • Writing personal statements, college essays and resumes
  • Mock interviews
  • Planning and preparation for early applicants to the UK and USA
  • Preparing supporting documentation
  • Providing support on results day

Meet our University Counsellor

Ms Anna Button

I have over twelve years of experience working in the fields of education, events organization and administration, which I gained working for private schools, private language schools and as an education consultant. This is my fifth year working as a University Counsellor and in that time I have had the pleasure of working closely with universities from around the globe. 

I strongly believe in the benefits of an international education and supporting students to find the right university and course for them, whatever their passion! I myself took the International Baccalaureate and hold a BA Honours in English and Italian from the University of Exeter. 

If you are a college or university representative interested in visiting CSM please contact Ms Button anna.button@canadianschool.it
