Guidance that Transforms & Empowers

Admissions Counseling is Trellis Academic's targeted, high-impact support service for students who are actively applying to undergraduate or graduate programs abroad. This service is designed specifically for students in their application year, and is distinct from our Ongoing Guidance program, which supports earlier-stage preparation. We are...

At Trellis, we work for students and families—not for schools. Unlike many education consultants in the region, we are not paid to recruit for any university, boarding school, or program. We do not accept commissions or incentives to steer students toward particular institutions.

Our only priority is helping each student achieve the best possible outcome for their unique goals. That means honest advice, tailored planning, and strategic guidance that puts the student’s long-term success first—not someone else’s enrollment target.

Whether you’re aiming for a top-tier university, a specialized program, or an unconventional path, Trellis is committed to providing objective, high-quality guidance every step of the way.

Independent. Student-Centered. Uncompromising.
