How will this impact my chances at getting into a great
university?
FAQ
Courses at The American International School in Japan
What do universities look for?
“When making curriculum choices, always seek out courses that will enrich and challenge you, rather than thinking about how they will look to a college application reader—every college reads applications differently, so it’s difficult to predict what will look ‘good’ to every college.”
