Comprehensive Application Support for Canada
By working with Dukes Plus, you’ll receive expert advice and guidance across all aspects of the Canadian university application process, including:
We help students choose the right institutions and programmes based on their academic strengths, career goals, and personal preferences. This includes advising on differences between provinces, such as the strong research focus at universities like Toronto and McGill versus more specialised options elsewhere in Canada.
Our team guides you in preparing essential application paperwork, including transcripts, reference letters, and personal essays where required. We ensure these are presented clearly and meet the expectations of Canadian admissions offices.
While most Canadian universities do not require SAT or ACT results, some programmes may request them, particularly for international applicants. We offer the highest standards of ACT and SAT tutoring to boost your score.
In addition, we can advise on the English or French language proficiency tests (such as IELTS, TOEFL, or TEF), which are often required for admission.
Canadian universities assess applications from many different education systems. We support you in converting grades into formats understood by admissions teams and advise on credential evaluation where necessary, ensuring your academic profile is accurately represented.
We guide you through Canada’s multiple application systems, from the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC), used by universities like Toronto, to individual institutional portals such as McGill’s. Our expertise ensures applications are submitted correctly, on time, and to the highest standard.
Some competitive programmes, particularly in areas like business, law, or health sciences, may request additional essays or interviews. We provide one-to-one coaching to help you express your motivations, achievements, and ambitions with confidence.
