BASIS International School Hangzhou is seeking qualified candidates for a College Counselor for the 2022-23 school year!
BASIS International School Hangzhou offers an incredible opportunity to be deeply involved in an academic community that is dynamic, exciting and unpredictable. You will join other education professionals in a highly social, supportive and collaborative environment.
As a college counselor at BASIS International School Hangzhou, you will be responsible for teaching a daily college counseling workshop to 12th graders, completing college counseling reports, and serving as the Senior Research Project (SRP) coordinator. You will also organize college admissions visits each fall, conduct family college counseling evenings, meet one-on-one with 9th and 10th graders during the academic year, and instruct students on completing college admissions applications and financial aid applications and obtaining recommendations.
Additionally, this individual will be responsible for developing new program ideas, co-leading college information evening sessions, and developing and maintaining college planning and career assessment and readiness software such as Naviance. You will have the opportunity to work closely with both students and parents on selecting the correct college or university based on the student’s career trajectory. This position is focused on student success and readiness for college and university study in the United States and other countries.
A part of the six BASIS International Schools in China, the Hangzhou campus opened in 2018 with over 350 students in grades Kindergarten through 9th, and will expand each year until courses are offered through 12th grade. The campus is purpose-built, and is capable of housing 1,000 students. It is divided into two buildings--one for the early years and the other for grades 2nd-12th. The facilities include a gymnasium, computer lab, cafeteria, outdoor track and field, and a black box theater that is able to open into an outdoor amphitheater.
Hangzhou is regarded by many as China's most beautiful city. It boasts an incredibly history, lake, river, and also enjoys four seasons. The school is located in a revitalized area of downtown Hangzhou--juxtaposed between modern city development and beautiful areas of natural scenery and historical significance. Newly built teacher accommodations are close to the school and convenient to shopping. A high-speed train also offers service to Shanghai in an hour.
