Bridging Gaps to Success for Hong Kong Students
ARCH Community Outreach
We’re proud to have established in 2011 ARCH Community Outreach (ACO), a non-profit charity, which aims to broaden Hong Kong youth’s exposure to international education experiences and diverse careers networks.
ACO was initially funded by a generous donation from our founders. Now, when you sign up for any programs or services at ARCH, a portion of the fee goes toward funding ACO’s various outreach initiatives!
Through ACO, we collaborate with local academic institutions, corporates and NGOs to organize and deliver various programs to widen access to and participation in international education and career opportunities.
Widening Access Programs
Recognizing that there are many high achievers in Hong Kong who, due to coming from an under-resourced background, may lack the support and guidance for academic and professional success. ACO helps to provide academic and professional guidance by offering free of charge programs including:
ACO CAREERS PROGRAM
We help students bridge gaps between their current academic preparation and their future career goals with mentorship and career exposure.
UNIVERSITY APPLICATION SUPPORT
We provide students who qualify to apply to overseas universities with support from ARCH Education’s team of expert UK & US admissions consultants.
SCHOOL WORKSHOPS
We equip teachers and counselors of government and aided Hong Kong secondary schools with the tools and information to support students applying to competitive overseas universities.
SCHOLARSHIP SUPPORT
We help our students find ways to fund their education abroad by offering advice, guidance and interview skills on scholarships granted by boarding schools, universities in the UK and US as well as other available sources.
