Octava promoción
La empatía, simpatía y el altruismo se unen en una comunidad unida exclusivamente por el compartir.
Una comunidad es aquello más grande que la suma de sus partes. La consciencia es algo más grande que la suma de todas las neuronas. La humanidad es algo más grande que la suma de todos los humanos. Hay un significado mayor, transcendental a los componentes del conjunto, que le aporta una chispa distinta a la consideración del total. Este fenómeno se manifiesta en Aditus. La empatía, simpatía y el altruismo se unen en una comunidad unida exclusivamente por el compartir. Compartir información, tiempo o presencia; compartir un comentario sobre un ensayo, compartir los resultados de los exámenes del SAT o compartir una tarde de estrés por todo lo que se viene encima.
La propia palabra Aditus viene del latín, y significa “abrir puertas”, “entrada” o “acceso”. Y es que no podría ser más cierto. Por un lado, nos abre las puertas del futuro académico idealizado con el que todos soñamos y las materializa en pasos adelante a través de las puertas: la realización de exámenes, la prestación de cantidades de información valiosa sobre el funcionamiento de organismos tan complejos como las universidades con las que soñamos entrar, o el propio entendimiento humano.
Sin embargo, y por otro lado, Aditus también abre las puertas hacia dentro: hacia la introspección y el conocimiento de uno mismo, esencial para el correcto proceso de la solicitud y, olvidándonos de universidades, para el bienestar personal. No puedo recomendar lo suficiente unirse a esta comunidad, el conocer a gente tan impresionante como la que he conocido y el reconfortante sentimiento de saber realmente quién eres y qué quieres.
Séptima promoción
Aditus es un camino marcado por el trabajo, el esfuerzo y la superación.
Aditus ha representado para mí la puerta hacia la oportunidad y el autodescubrimiento. Inicié esta aventura con un objetivo más bien abstracto, que con el transcurso del tiempo adquirió una solidez y realidad cada vez mayores. A lo largo de este camino, me encontré con personas que compartían mis inquietudes e ilusiones, impulsándome a trabajar y luchar por mis sueños. Conté con un excepcional equipo de apoyo que nos guió hacia lo más alto, haciéndonos creer en la posibilidad de convertir esos sueños en realidad. Además, tuve la suerte de contar con tutores magníficos que me motivaron a cuestionar mi propia identidad, haciéndome así reflexionar sobre quién era y quién quería ser. Personas maravillosas que me llevaron a conocerme a mí misma y creyeron en mí.
Aditus no es un camino lineal y exento de desafíos hacia la realización de un sueño. Más bien, es un camino marcado por el trabajo, el esfuerzo y la superación y considero que justo esos caminos son los que valen más la pena. En este recorrido, he aprendido que lo importante no es únicamente el resultado final, sino el proceso en sí: todo lo que hemos hecho y luchado para llegar hasta aquí. Con Aditus, he comprobado que los rechazos no son muros que te hacen perderte cual laberinto, sino escalones que te reconducen hacia el éxito.
Es por todo esto y por más que me siento infinitamente agradecida por las oportunidades que me han sido proporcionados, así como por los aprendizajes que esta aventura me ha brindado. Sé firmemente que, independientemente del desenlace, me llevo a personas increíbles, un equipo maravilloso y una nueva yo, lista para caer y levantarse las veces que haga falta.
Sexta promoción
Todos estamos de acuerdo en lo enriquecedor que ha sido pertenecer a esta comunidad.
Aditus ha sido un verdadero impulso en mi educación. Me ha abierto puertas a oportunidades que no conocía y me ha permitido elegir mi futuro entre todas las opciones posibles. Con una amplia variedad de recursos, he tenido todo lo que necesitaba para completar el proceso de solicitudes a universidades. He tenido el apoyo de un preparador de exámenes y un grupo de apasionados tutores, además de una red de universitarios y profesionales. El equipo Aditus ha hecho un esfuerzo enorme por ayudarme a alcanzar mi objetivo.
Pero Aditus no es solo el proceso de solicitudes. Durante el camino he conocido a estudiantes con mis mismas inquietudes que me han permitido explorar mis gustos y han sido un apoyo fundamental para mi desarrollo personal este último año.
Y la recompensa ha llegado para todos nosotros en la sexta promoción. Sea estudiando en Estados Unidos, en Europa o en España, todos estamos de acuerdo en lo enriquecedor que ha sido pertenecer a esta comunidad.
5th cohort
This process has prompted us to give our full potential.
I would have never imagined how much Aditus would provide me with, and there is yet to come. My cohort, together with the tutors, has created an unbreakable and unforgettable bond. This process has prompted us to fulfill our full potential, and has broadened our vision. We have reflected on all aspects of our short life and our future. This has led to a deep introspection, and therefore helped us discover ourselves better.
This experience has made me realise that my dreams, which at first I saw so distant and intangible, with a lot of passion, effort and help can be achieved. I am very grateful to the Aditus team for their willingness to help us whenever we need it. They offer us all the necessary pathways and tools for the application process to American and / or British universities, and they accompany us throughout this intense journey.
I hope to make the most of this wonderful opportunity. In the end, whether or not you end up studying at the university you wished for, the enriching experience will have been worth it.
4th cohort
The college application process is — therefore — proving to be a true effort of self-discovery and improvement.
Aditus is offering me an academic and personal support network. At the beginning of my experience I thought that I had a well-defined image about my future and main academic motivations. This idea was, however, quickly challenged.
My tutors have encouraged me to explore my passions and to question my decisions, and even my identity. The college application process is — therefore — proving to be a true effort of self-discovery and improvement.
I especially appreciate my mentors’ dedication; I am lucky to have always found motivation and closeness in all our conversations. My decision to apply for a place at American and British universities comes from a notion of disagreement: I believe that to become a well-rounded person I must approach higher education accordingly. The liberal arts system would allow me to broaden my general knowledge. Aditus is giving me the means to take this step, and I hope that I will make good use of those resources.
Third cohort
What seemed like a dream, applying for a place at an elite university, becomes a reality in just a few months.
In a process in which you showcase your potential as a future student to a university, it is key to ask yourself in the initial stage of personal reflection: who am I? Who do I want to be? Only once you find your answer can you start building the self that exists in the applications. To do this, you have tutors to turn to who serve as a guide and help you put forward the side of yourself that you have just discovered.
With Aditus I have also learned to want to go further. What seemed like a dream, applying for a place at an elite university, becomes a reality in just a few months. By having access to the support of the whole team, you realize that it is not an unattainable goal and learn to project yourself into the future. You barely had answers to the question of how you see yourself in 5 years; now you have a myriad of ambitious ideas that you are aware you can carry out.
I am thus convinced that it is an experience that always results in success, whether or not you end up in your desired university, since the most important thing is everything you learn along the way. When you look back, you realize that you are no longer the same person who timidly started the journey.
Second cohort
After a year at Harvard, I am convinced that I made the right decision by coming to the United States.
As its name suggests, Aditus is an access, a door that opens countless others. What began as an unattainable dream little by little became a tangible reality thanks to the magnificent team behind the program (of which I am now a proud part), their enthusiasm and their know-how. Not only did they walk me through the application process, instructing and advising me, but they also guided me on the introspective journey it entails. I found my place thanks to Aditus, and for that I will be eternally grateful.
After a year at Harvard, I am convinced that I made the right decision by coming to the United States. Flexibility, interdisciplinarity and autonomy - values that are still uncommon in the Spanish system - are integrated into its teaching staff and student fabric that, in my opinion, inseparably tie personal and academic growth together. Harvard has allowed me to meet true leaders, some of them in crowded amphitheaters and others in the neighbour’s room; people who inspire me to become my best self, someone of value to society.
First cohort
Studying in the UK has completely changed my perspective of who I want to be.
When I joined Aditus thinking that it was just a program to help you study at an elite university, I was unaware of the personal transformation that I was going to experience. Aditus was a turning point not only in my academic life but also in my personal one. Aditus gives you all the tools you need to be successful in college and improve yourself, and if you make use of them properly you will be on your way to becoming a different person! A better person, more mature and prepared for the outside world; a great advantage over the rest of the students.
Studying in the UK has completely changed my perspective of who I want to be. It has opened up a world of possibilities and has helped me grow and explore opportunities that I couldn't have accessed anywhere else.
