To achieve this goal, our College Counselor, with the High School team, helps empower students to become responsible self-advocates in planning their university and career goals in collaboration with their families.
College Placement
Empowering students to become responsible self-advocates in planning their university and career goals.
The aim of our College Placement program is to help students find
their place in college that will be every bit as important and inspirational
to them as the International School of Curitiba was.

A Crucial Process
For ISC Alumni and bioengineer Taciana Pereira, the college counseling was crucial to her acceptance into Harvard.
“I was in a very stressful and anxious moment. I couldn’t afford to study in the USA without a 90% scholarship, which is very hard for international students. Thanks to the support of my family, friends and college counselor I was able to enroll in the university of my dreams.”
College Acceptances
Out of the 43 graduates of the Class of 2018, 27 are enrolled in universities outside of Brazil,
in countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, New Zealand and Canada.
