University Counselling

The Director of University Counselling works closely with each student to help them find the best fit for their post-secondary options. Close to 50 universities from around the world visit RSGC each year to meet with students individually or in small groups. Annually, 80-85% of our graduates are accepted to the university and program of their first choice. Our rigorous academic program prepares students for post-secondary success, no matter their chosen path. Our Alumni Association hosts several events every year to help students prepare for a successful transition to university. Each year a handful of graduates chooses to defer their university entrance to pursue a Gap Year - these students work closely with our Coordinator of Global Partnerships and Real World Connections to plan a productive and transformative year.

Ian A. Fleming, the Director of University Counselling, adopts a student-centered approach, integrating best practices from academic advising, mindfulness, and psychotherapeutic principles. In keeping with RSGC values, students are guided to do much more than "get into university"; we aim to model effective decision-making, foster self-reflection and value assessment, and identify the best fit for each individual.
