University Office In 2021, once again due to the pandemic, no institutions mad in-person visits to campus. Our UWC Counsellor group put together a series of virtual events which encompassed almost all Davis Partner Schools, plus many non-Davis Partner Schools who have UWC specific scholarships. This enabled us to expose students to well over 100 institutions. Among them were Princeton Uni, Wellesley College, ESADE Business & Law School, Spain, Georgetown University in Qatar, New York University Abu Dhabi, to name just a few. Attendance was almost 2000 UWC students worldwide!

UWCERS REIMAGINING TOMORROW IN 2021

In addition to this RCN had virtual visits from a number of institutions from across Europe. The US remained the top destination for our 2021 graduates. 43 students went to their chosen US institution in the autumn, 4 to the UK, 8 to the Nordic region, 9 to the Netherlands, 2 to Canada, 1 to China, 1 to Hungary and 1 to the Republic of Ireland. The remaining 28 took a gap year. The usual gap year opportunities such as Global Citizen Year and the Semester at Sea were cancelled or changed to virtual experiences.
