Our Policies

Please note the following policy from the IECA:
"
an IEC doesn't get you admitted—they help you to demonstrate why you deserve to be admitted."


A sports coach trains and develops athletes to make them competitive enough to win, rather than to guarantee a win. In a similar manner, we instill within our students the  skills and confidence needed to make them competitive for the admissions process, rather than guarantee admission to a particular school.
