How Wellington College China paves the path to higher education

29 Dec 2020

Furthermore, our pupil’s aspirations extend to other top universities right around the globe. Pupils in Tianjin and Shanghai have already started to hear back from their early applications – with acceptances already from Ivy League institutions such as University of Pennsylvania and other top schools including Carnegie Mellon and NYU in the United States and the University of Toronto in Canada.  

 

At Wellington College Tianjin, seeing our pupils off to a quality university is a job we take very seriously, and we have put in place a comprehensive system of support to make sure it happens. 

 

Wellington College International Tianjin's Festival of Higher Education  

 

Wellington College Tianjin's annual Festival of Higher Education provides our pupils and those in the wider community the unique opportunity to meet face to face with admissions officers from the world's best universities. Visiting admissions officers give lectures and Q&A sessions, sharing invaluable advice on the admissions process. In fact, last year, more than 60 international universities participated.

The current global situation has made it difficult to hold such events in person, however. We nevertheless maintain active communication with university admissions offices worldwide. This enabled us to hold more than 200 online admissions briefing sessions this year.

Every week, we have held three presentations by universities from around the world, enabling us to familiarise even more pupils with the application process. Mrs Jayne Sabio, Wellington College International Tianjin's head of sixth form, adds.

"As Wellington College Tianjin moves into its tenth year, our reputation among admissions’ officers from universities across the world continues to grow. They recognise that we are a premium-brand school that lives by its values. Whenever they visit, the feedback that we get from them is overwhelmingly positive. Furthermore, being part of a family of schools with a well-known name and reputation for academic integrity means that our pupils continue to access many of the top universities in the world."

Our Festival of Higher Education is just one of the many ways in which we help our pupils find the right university. We also host a variety of events throughout the year, such as university visits and support sessions for US admissions tests, just to name a few. Ultimately, our comprehensive support system coupled with our pupils' hard work and determination get them the higher education that they want and deserve.  

 

Please join us in wishing our 2021 graduates good luck. We look forward to hearing more news of their success.
