CHOICES FOR 16-18 YEAR OLDS

How can you ensure admissions to your dream university?

The culminating years of high school are the most important when it comes to university admissions. At CGA we help you plan for your university admissions while ensuring that you maximize your time in high school.

We offer International A Levels, a globally recognized high school curriculum. The A Level qualification will enable you to gain admission to top tier universities world-wide including UK, US, Canada, Australia, Singapore and New Zealand.

For those students looking to attend a US university, we offer Advanced Placement courses. These are college-level courses that students in American high schools take to get credit at university. While not a complete curriculum, AP courses are well-regarded for their academic rigour.

We also offer university and career counselling for all our students, regardless of their enrolment type.

How can CGA help you?

Early preparation for university begins by selecting the correct subjects that will guide on as you progress in your learning journey. By taking classes that will help you understand what subject matter is like in university, you will be better prepared to face the challenges of advanced learning. At CGA we offer two options for students at the secondary level: the International A Level programme and Advanced Placement Courses.

International A Levels


The A-Level curriculum is the #1 studied curriculum in the world, and in many countries high grades in A-Levels can result in university course credit. The syllabus prepares students aged 15-17 for university.

Edexcel International A Level is typically a two-year course - divided into the AS and A2 levels. Some subjects can be started as an AS Level and extended to A2 Level.

Advanced Placement Courses


The Advanced Placement course (AP) is primarily accepted for university entrance in the US & Canada, and is available to study through our CGA US campus. Administered by the College Board, they have now replaced the SAT Subject Tests for college applications.

The AP course is not a full curriculum or qualification but can generate credits for those students that are typically looking at applying for US or Canadian universities.

Extended Project Qualification


The Pearson Edexcel L3 Project Qualification is designed to stretch, challenge and motivate aspirational A Level students.

Students have the opportunity to research and produce an extended essay (or dissertation) that adds depth or breadth to one of the subjects they are already studying at A Level. Alternatively, students have the freedom to explore other areas of academic curiosity as a taster.

Acceleration Options


At CGA we believe that students should study according to their ability and not age. With this in mind, we encourage students to accelerate their studies beyond the traditional school year.

We provide both full time and part time enrolment options that will help you maximize your time and take classes that challenge you academically. Our advisors can guide you in this process.
