Our Student Advisers play an important role in providing information and guidance to all prospective students and get to know each student individually to ensure that all students receive full support throughout their application and enrolment at Accademia del Lusso.

Role of a Student Adviser

Student Advisers at ADL are much more than admissions experts; they perform many different tasks and are a key point of reference for all prospective students and applicants. Here are just some of the tasks they perform on a daily basis:

• Interact with prospective students via telephone, email, video chat, instant messaging, and in-person meetings where possible.
• Advise on the best course match based on applicants’ career goals and interests.
• Provide information about all aspects of ADL, including career prospects, course details and curricula, application procedures and documents, immigration procedures, the school itself and its staff, activities and facilities, accommodation options and more.
• Send course guides via email and other useful material to get to know ADL and the courses offered
• Review application/enrolment documents and provide any documents the student may need relating to immigration procedures.
• Follow the entire application and admissions procedure together with each applicant.
