ACADEMIC REQUIREMENTS
‘The educators at AITA possess a deep understanding of the enthusiasm they bring to their respective fields, the care and support they provide, and their dedication to crafting a significant and unforgettable journey for each student. These components form the foundation of a robust academic curriculum that lies at the core of every student’s educational experience at AITA.
How to choose classes?
AITA’s goal is to prepare each student for success in institutions of higher education home and abroad, and in the future workplace. To help students identify and follow a pathway to university or job, we have created a system of cooperation with school counselors, career and college counselors, parents and student.
Two main methods of school counselors are:
- Mandatory professional and academic orientation at the admission and at the end of each school year.
- Responsible person: School counselor.
- University application plan and timeline.
- Responsible person: Career and college counselor.
How we help you?
- We are following natural flow of student’s maturity and academic development
We give concrete information for student and parent about what to expect from each class (e.g. Professional and academic orientation report for each student).
We offer detailed information about chosen career path (e.g. Clasess at the college level, possible specialisations at the Master studies level, concrete jobs student can apply to and work after college, etc.).
We are taking student’s preferences, interests and capabilities for certain subjects very seriously.
We are creating College Admission Path for each student – Reports and plans about required subjects and grades for acceptance at specific colleges and universities.
