About UES

Who are we?

UES stands for University Entrance Skills. The organisation was founded with one aim in mind: to provide high quality, personal support to students entering Higher Education in the US and the UK. With that in mind, we have developed an end-to-end service that includes help with standardised test tutoring, building the right extracurricular profile, choosing colleges, writing college essays and personal statements, and completing applications.

We also work closely with schools to deliver in-house courses, build their capacity for US application support, and provide them with up-to-date information and expertise. Teachers and counsellors from over 100 schools have attended our events and training.

Why UES?

Our strength is our specialism: we guide students through the process of applying to top US and UK schools and universities. We offer a highly personal and flexible service, and have a dedicated support team that understands the intricacies of the US and UK application systems in great detail.

Our team at UES comprises highly qualified, experienced educational professionals who have graduated from leading British and American universities. Tutors have passed the tests they teach with a perfect score , and we tailor our lessons to the strengths and needs of the student. We match students with tutors to make sure they are the right fit. We get extremely good results: our testimonials speak for themselves.

We pride ourselves on the quality of our tuition and support, and as such we come highly recommended by top schools in the UK and Europe.

Our Tutors and Consultants

Our tutors are carefully selected for their high level of education, their knowledge of the US and UK application process, their ability to communicate ideas, and how well they engage with and motivate their students. They have perfect scores in the tests they teach, and they're highly popular.
