Why The EdTour?
With an experience of managing over twenty in-person US university recruitment tours in Pakistan since 2012, we are ecstatic to welcome you once again for the EdTour.
After concluding a successful EdTour South Asia – 2022, join us as we return to a full-strength in-person tour in this new landscape of student recruitment. We are looking forward to welcoming a select group of institutions, to ensure the HEIs get the most out of the EdTour. The EdTour is open to undergraduate and graduate admissions representatives.
Be ready to meet students, parents, and high school counselors across Pakistan. Our tours offer a mix of school/university visits, and networking events with students, parents, and high school counselors.
Apart from meeting quality students, many fun activities are planned throughout the tour. The EdTour is run by a group of foodies and we are excited to have you join us on a culinary journey across Pakistan!
