Personalized college planning, built around each student.
We plan from the student’s actual academic record — not a generic admissions checklist. Coursework, credits, major preparation, university strategy, and application timelines are tailored to the individual student.

Common questions
Is advising available without enrolling in an Edvance course?
Yes. College planning and admissions advising is offered as a standalone service, and is also included for students enrolled in SUCP, IESP, or the U.S. High School Pathway.
What languages is advising delivered in?
Advising sessions and written plans are available in English and Chinese so students and parents work from the same documentation.
How often do families meet with an advisor?
Plans are reviewed on a scheduled term basis, with additional sessions around course registration and application deadlines.
Do you guarantee admission to a specific university?
No. Advising improves planning, documentation, and academic preparation. Admission decisions are made solely by each university under its own published policies.
University admission, credit acceptance, course articulation, English proficiency waivers, and scholarship decisions are determined by the relevant colleges and universities and their published policies. Edvance USA provides academic planning and advising services and does not guarantee admission or transfer outcomes.
