Wellingtonians a perfect fit with top UK and US universities

 

Stephen Tippen

As we prepare to go on our Chinese New Year break it seems like an ideal time to reflect on an outstanding set of univerisity offers that Wellington College Shanghai has received so far. Wellingtonians continue to achieve success in every possible field with offers from some of the most prestigious universities ranked within the top-10 of all global institutions. Positive responses have been received from right across the world — from world leading institutions such as the University of Cambridge, the University of Chicago and the University of Toronto.

What is also pleasing is that offers have been received from some of the most traditionally competitive programmes, such as Law and Engineering, as well as from some of the world's top arts schools and programmes. Receiving affirmation from the academically rigorous Oxbridge process as well as from the forensic and highly specialist programmes on offer in the performing and visual arts, is a fitting testament to the holistic education which is the hallmark of Wellington. It is clearly an approach that leads both to a broad education and successful university outcomes — as shown by the record of success being mirrored in our sister school, Wellington College International Tianjin.

We are still awaiting decisions from the regular round of applications in the US and UK, as well as from a range of other destinations, so please look out for further updates.
