La Châtaigneraie's Guidance Booklet

​This is our most important resource, organised into three sections:

Part 1: The Guidance process and counsellor introductions
Part 2: Essential Options advice for students in Years 9, 10 and 11
Part 3: Summaries of many countries and some specific universities


Our entire collection of presentations is linked across the booklet. If you want to know how applications to a specific country work or how to search for degrees in that country, for example, go to the country's pages et voila!

​You can access the Guidance Booklet here. Y12 receive a printed copy.

Very Short Introductions to... Everything!

If you are looking to explore a subject you know in more detail, or if you want to learn about an entirely new subject that you have not studied in school, then Oxford's fantastic Very Short Introductions are for you!

Many are in the Library, but you can also now access them all online via the link above (you will need to sign into your Ecolint account). ​Happy reading!

NACAC Guide to Global University Admissions

NACAC (the National Association for College Admission Counselling) is an American organisation that supports counsellors and students from around the world in making applications to universities in headline destinations.

​This booklet summarises the types of university education available in 17 popular countries (chosen because of the number of US / international students they attract), along with summaries of their application processes.

The angle tends to skew a little towards students applying from the US, but the general advice is excellent for all students and parents.

​You can access NACAC's 2022-23 guide here.

IB Guides to Global University Admissions
In addition to confirming the conversion between the IB Diploma and national qualifications, the IB also offers a series of guides on global university admissions to a handful of the most popular destinations.
