Join us for our upcoming university guidance series, Twilight Sessions, which will take place at the College every Thursday over the coming 5 weeks. The series will cover some of the hottest topics currently facing those making applications to popular university destinations in the US and the UK. The Twilight Sessions series will be run by Steve Tippen, Director of Higher Education and Careers, and, Chris Roma, the Managing Director of A-List Education China. Together they have years of experience of preparing pupils for university in the US and UK and can give attendees a real insight into the application processes. All sessions will take place Thursdays from 5 to 6:15pm and are intended primarily for parents. Senior School pupils are welcome to attend, though they will have their own sessions on these topics. Each session involves a talk covering the topic followed by the opportunity for discussion and questions. Refreshments will be provided.
