the organisations

Aspire

Aspire is a leading US scholarship consultancy based in the UK. Every year we have consistently placed high calibre athletes at the very best colleges in the US across a number of different sports. Our results speak for themselves from the amount of $ we broker on behalf of clients to the acceptance into the most illustrious colleges in the US. We deliberately work with a small number of athletes to ensure each client has the best chance of securing a place stateside.

Hult

At Hult, we believe that education is about so much more than a degree. It’s about transformation. Students want skills that will transform their lives. Employers want graduates that will transform their businesses. Society wants businesses that will transform the world. Like all change, it starts with action.

By focusing on what our students can do in the real world, rather than just the theory they study in classrooms, we prioritize those skills and mindsets that are most needed to bring about change—in the careers of the individual, the businesses they work in, and the society we all live in. This belief in the power of learning by doing goes beyond a philosophy; it is the guiding force behind every program we provide, every course we create, every class we run. It’s what makes Hult the business school for those made to do.

Imperial College London

We were founded in 1907 with a mission ‘To be useful’, but we know that before anyone can usefully change something, they first need to understand it. That’s what we do here: We use science to try to understand more of the universe, and improve the lives of more people in it.

At Imperial, we are deeply engaged in the central forces that are shaping the future. And the research and innovations we produce are right now helping to navigate some of the world’s toughest challenges in global health, climate change, AI, business leadership and more.

As a partner of global industry and a pipeline for extraordinary talent, science at Imperial is more than any single subject – it’s a mindset, and a way of seeing things. It’s a bias for inquiry and action. It’s the pursuit of knowledge and new ideas with grit, humility, creativity and courage.

And it all starts with a question – a curiosity about the world, or some wildly specific corner of it. With wonder, rigour and care, we advance toward its greater understanding.

How ‘to be useful’? At Imperial, our answer is to combine exceptional teaching, world-class facilities and a habit of interdisciplinary practice to unlock scientific imagination in everyone. To nurture a bias for inquiry and action. To pursue knowledge and new ideas with grit, humility, creativity and courage. To chase the truth, then apply it for the good of all.

First to understand, then to transform. We hope you’ll join us.
