Economics explains decisions, markets, policy, and global change

Economics is one of the most influential disciplines in the modern world. It shapes government policy, financial markets, business strategy, technological innovation, and global development, helping students understand how leaders make decisions under uncertainty.

At Sapiente, economics becomes rigorous analytical thinking

We believe economics is far more than graphs and formulas. Our programme helps students think like economists, question assumptions, analyse frameworks, and interpret markets through personalised mentorship, independent research, and advanced analytical work.

What is Sapiente Education?

Sapiente Education provides online academic mentoring programmes for teenagers and young adults. Students work with experienced academics, researchers, and professionals from leading universities and organisations. Our programmes are designed around each student's interests, academic level, and goals.

How does the admissions process work?

First, the student submits an online application. Our Admissions Team reviews the application and may ask some follow-up questions. If the student is accepted, we confirm the most suitable programme, complete the enrolment, match the student with a mentor, and agree on a start date.

Can we have a consultation before applying?

Yes. You can speak with our Admissions Team before applying if you would like to discuss the student's goals or understand which programme may be suitable. There is no charge for the consultation.

What if my child has exams or a particularly busy school period?

Let us know as early as possible. For Scholar and Mastery, there is usually flexibility to adjust the pace around exams, holidays, or other important commitments. Intensive programmes have less flexibility because they are completed over two weeks.

I am a parent and I do not speak English. Can we still have a consultation?

Yes. We can communicate through email or WhatsApp and use translation tools when necessary. The important thing is that we can clearly understand the student's background, goals, and requirements.

How can I pay for a programme?

Payments can be made securely through Stripe or by bank transfer upon request. Before making a payment, you will receive the programme price, currency, and any applicable taxes.
