  • Program of Studies – Message from the Principal
    Program of Studies 2017-2018 Program of Studies – Message from the Principal Dear LAS Student, Our goals of the secondary program at Lahore American School are twofold. The first goal is for you, the student, to receive acceptance letters from the universities to which you apply. However this is just the beginning. Our second goal is for you to successfully complete the course of study at the university you decide to attend. In order to receive those acceptance letters you must accomplish five important things. You must write a solid college application essay You need strong letters of recommendation from your teachers and counselor. You must have good scores in your standardized testing such as the SAT. You need to show leadership in activities, athletics, organizations, and projects. You must demonstrate a commitment to learning and stretch yourself academically in a rigorous academic program The Lahore American School’s Program of Studies is designed to provide each student with a rigorous program that will accomplish the two goals. Firstly, it will show admissions officials at your selected universities that you have challenged yourself academically. Secondly, by successfully completing a rigorous academic program, you are academically prepared for the challenges of university study. The descriptions provided in this document will help you answer the following important questions: Am I choosing courses that are appropriate for my abilities, interests and career plans? Am I choosing courses that will challenge my abilities? Am I choosing courses that fulfill LAS graduation requirements? Am I choosing courses that qualify me for the universities I wish to attend? Am I choosing a program of study that allows time for extra-curricular activities? It is important to remember to seek information from a variety of sources.
