Once school is out in Dubai, it will be time for you to start planning your summer school visits. If you happen to be visiting the United States, we recommend that you visit a couple of Ivy League universities to see the best the U.S. has to offer in education. Originally, the term “Ivy League” applied to the athletic division these colleges and universities sports teams competed in. However, for many years these universities have been widely regarded as the top and most competitive universities in the U.S.

Other “Ivy League equivalents”–schools that are not technically in the Ivy League but are considered to provide a similar standard of education include:

  • California Institute of Technology
  • Georgetown University
  • Massachusetts Institute of Technology
  • Stanford University
  • University of California, Berkeley
  • University of Chicago

Although these schools are stretch schools for everyone (meaning the application process is so competitive), they are worth visiting because they are considered the best America has to offer. If you intend to visit one of these unis, be sure to attend the official information session and campus tour.

Can’t visit an Ivy League university in person?

No problem! Fortunately, many universities offer online virtual tours. You will be able to see the campus via video or a Google street map-like view. Typically, you can also click on certain buildings to see what classes are held inside and learn about the building.

Be sure to attend the online information session

Info sessions are also online! They are usually an hour and will answer most of your questions about admissions. Attending one of these sessions will save you hours of research and doubt.

Here’s what Harvard offers:

“In these hour-long sessions, an admission officer and an undergraduate student will present information and answer questions about academics, student life, admissions, and financial aid at Harvard College.”
