Services

Just Like Home offers several special services that are designed to help our clients acclimate to their desired destinations and to achieve their personal and professional goals. Our services include, but are not limited to:

College Preparation and Acceptance

The American education system offers a wide variety of choices for international students.  For many, the process can be overwhelming.  As you begin your school search, you will need to consider whether you want to enroll in a state or private college or university or a community college for your first two years.  Understanding the system will help you narrow your choices and develop your education plan.  Just Like Home is positioned to help you to choose the right school and, in many cases, we can help you to narrow your choices of majors, which for some is equally challenging.

Many of the language schools with which we partner offer conditional acceptance to more than 100 universities and colleges in the United States.  A conditional acceptance is when a university accepts you to enroll with the condition that you achieve university-level English proficiency. This option is a popular choice for international students when planning their academic future; first your English studies and then university studies.  The other option is take and achieve the appropriate score for the TOEFL or IELTS required by the college or university of your choice.
