We offer our students rigorous test preparation courses for the SAT, TOEFL, and Duolingo. By achieving remarkable results, students boost their chances of gaining admission into top schools. In August 2023, 85% of our students ranked top 1% of million test-takers worldwide.

Seminars

We conduct intensive weeks-long seminars to equip our students with knowledge and train them in core soft skills to tackle the college application journey with greater confidence and ease. These are conducted in small groups and involve presentations, workshops, discussions, and interactive activities.

Essay writing is a critical part of the college application process. We encourage our students to tell their unique stories to universities and colleges by teaching them how to write admission and scholarship-winning essays. We train them to communicate with authenticity and impact through rigorous workshops that lead to self-discovery and growth.

”Misongi has been a transformative force in my life. It's not an exaggeration to say that without Misongi, I wouldn't be where I am today. This program empowered me to secure a full-ride scholarship at Northwestern University, where I'm currently pursuing both a Bachelor's and Master's degree in Computer Science. Along the way, I had the privilege of interning at Amazon and Google, experiences that have shaped my career aspirations. Misongi has been the key to unlocking countless opportunities in my academic and personal journey, and I'm immensely grateful for its impact.

Additional program

Join the cross-cultural training program to successfully navigate a new academic and social environment

An important challenge international students face while studying abroad is adaptability. Cultural fluency is a real skill that requires patience, practice, perseverance, and inclusion. Our program equips students with tools to practice and hone that skill in real academic, professional, and social settings. We develop integrated training that focuses on identifying differences in communication style, values, and even differences in etiquette. To become effective leaders, our students need to be culturally competent, and our training promotes cross-cultural awareness, clearer communication, empathy, and social inclusion, which will serve them in college and beyond.

  • Improved Communications enhance effective interactions among students and with professors from diverse backgrounds.
  • Cultural Awareness cultivates an understanding of different cultural norms, values, and behaviors.
  • Adaptability to new academic and social Environments.
  • Reduced Cultural Bias which fosters
open-mindedness.
  • Increased Creativity and Innovation that stimulate innovative thinking.
