ApplyBoard has helped countless students around the world realize their dreams of pursuing their education abroad in the United States of America. Today, we’re pleased to announce that ApplyBoard is now a certified member of the American International Recruitment Council (AIRC).
AIRC “works to safeguard the interests of both international students and enrolling institutions through the promotion of ethical, standards-based international recruitment strategies.”
ApplyBoard is delighted to be counted among AIRC’s distinguished global network of institutional, pathway, and certified educational agency members that are dedicated to international student recruitment.
The organization’s strict principles of integrity and transparency in international recruitment align closely with those of ApplyBoard.
What Are the Purposes of AIRC?
AIRC, a non-profit organization, was founded in 2008 to:
- Develop standards of ethical practice pertaining to recruitment of international students to American educational institutions
- Develop best practices and training to assist overseas student educational recruitment agencies and institutions themselves to better serve students seeking admission to American educational institutions
- Establish a framework through which participating educational agencies can have their practices certified
A Rigorous Process
Receiving AIRC certification entailed opening our organization to a rigorous process that includes an in-depth audit of ApplyBoard’s:
- Policies
- Programs
- Partners
This intense vetting process ensures the highest standards of transparency and ethics are maintained at every level of our organization. ApplyBoard’s AIRC certification reflects our ongoing commitment to quality, integrity, and innovation in helping students study abroad in the United States.
