Meritus Academy will host an online seminar on August 12 — Journeys of Excellence: Growth & Success Stories from Students Admitted to Harvard, Stanford, and Yale”

We are delighted to invite three outstanding students to share their valuable experiences and insights from applying to top universities in the U.S. They will present their unique strengths and growth stories from different perspectives. They are:

  • April Cao:Stanford University
  • Christopher Li:Harvard University
  • Ronan Zhong:Princeton University

 

Although these three students have different backgrounds, aspirations, and strengths, each has followed a unique path to success. They will share their personal journeys from a variety of perspectives, including study planning, academic exploration, competition experiences, extracurricular involvement, and the university application process. Through their stories, they hope to inspire and encourage more students to pursue their own goals with confidence.

On June 20 this year, Meritus Academy successfully held a Peer Inspiration seminar, inviting seven students to share their successful experiences in applying to top U.S. and U.K. universities (click here for details).

According to our latest tally, 22 Meritus Academy students have been admitted to top U.S. and U.K. universities this year (click here for details). These successful students benefited from the experiences shared by previous Meritus graduates and are now passing that inspiration forward.

Every outstanding student follows a unique path of growth shaped by admirable qualities. While no two success stories are the same, they all share a strong sense of purpose, perseverance in the face of challenges, and the courage to continually push beyond their limits. These are the qualities that have earned them the recognition of the world’s most prestigious universities and led them to the universities they had dreamed of attending.

The meaning of education has never been to provide standard answers, but to inspire the way forward for our students.
