Sequoia Boarding School Planning & Placement Services
If Korean local schools don’t meet your child’s needs, you may want to consider a boarding school where your child can flourish academically and socially in the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, UK, Switzerland, Austria, even Malta or Czech. With hundreds of accredited boarding schools throughout the USA, Canada, and Europe, selecting the right one can be daunting. Few parents have the resources needed to identify the best choices for boarding school.
That's where the specialty services of Sequoia Group plays a pivotal role. Young Hee Park and her staff of educational consultants, Jenny Son and Matt Kim offer a high level of personalized counseling to students and families, helping them choose and apply to the “right fit” boarding schools.
Because Young Hee travels across the US and Europe to participate in the boarding school conference and to visit several boarding schools every year – meeting with admission officers and students, touring campuses, and learning about the current campus culture – her personal insight provides a family with a much deeper understanding of each school than a boarding-school viewbook or website can convey. And her personal relationships with admission directors facilitate her presentation and discussion of a student before submission of an application.
[A Full Range of Services]
Young Hee’s expertise puts a student ahead of the pack with cutting-edge advice on how to stand out during the boarding-school application process. Her counseling includes a full range of services:
Consultations with and support for the family throughout the planning process, and for the entire term of placement in boarding school
- Complete student evaluation (academic records, student’s activities and interests, strengths and weaknesses, goals, psycho-educational evaluation if applicable)
- Conducting psychological testings, such as the Sequoia Integrated Psychological Test (SIPT), Study Abroad Aptitude Test (SAAT) and Learning Achievement Aptitude Test (LAAT)
- Conducting linguistic and academic achievement tests, such as International Test of English Proficiency (iTEP) and Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS)
- Identifying the boarding schools where the student will be most successful in terms of academics, special interest activities, personal growth, religion, location, and student body size
- Creating a profile of the student for presentation to boarding-school admission directors for pre-screening, thus expediting a successful placement
- Providing the student and parents with information about each selected boarding school
- Preparing a student and parents to make the most of boarding-school visits and interviews; debriefing after school visits
- Assistance with application essays (from brainstorming ideas to editorial reviews of each draft and the final essays)
- Thorough boarding-school application review
- Communicating with school admission directors throughout the planning and application process
- Review of student’s academic progress throughout the term of placement, on a schedule consistent with the boarding school’s policies for consultant communications
- Remaining in the "loop" with the family and boarding school throughout the term of placement (e.g., advocating for the student, working as part of a team to resolve problems that may arise)
- Follow-up through freshman year to whole years for families who would like to keep in touch with us in order that their child will adapt himself to a new environment
We are also planning to offer the best in 1-on-1 SSAT and TOEFL preparation as well as the opportunity to take the official iTEP and ITBS privately at Sequoia Group offices in Seoul and Jeju.
We can tell about the two things we do best:
- We reduce the stress of boarding school planning.
- We give their children an edge.

[Comprehensive or One Time Consultation]
We offer a comprehensive package consultation service but virtually all aspects of our comprehensive boarding school services are available on an hourly basis. This way, a family can work with us as much or as little as needed, targeting only those aspects of the process requiring our support.
