International Agents. Ìð¹ÏÊÓƵ uses a network of independent recruiters to augment its pipeline of prospective international students.

Recruiters help Pace build brand awareness and provide access to markets that are often remote and unfamiliar.

They may also provide services such as pre-departure briefings, English language classes, standardized test prep, flight and accommodation bookings, and career guidance and job placement services upon the student’s return home.

Recruiters do not admit or deny students who have applied to Pace and they do not prepare any Visa related materials. Pace makes all admissions decisions according to its admissions criteria.
