This year Ivy League universities from the US plus several top-10 UK universities will visit as well as a growing number of top institutions from Australia and Asia as they try to recruit our students.

 

Summer Courses

As the competition for places at top universities increases, summer programmes (many held on university campuses) are becoming increasingly popular to help support university applications.  Last year, the British School of Guangzhou helped students in Years 10-12 to attend such courses, with many students offered scholarships as a result of their superb applications.

 

SATs

For those considering applications to US universities, the British School of Guangzhou is accredited as an official SAT centre, allowing our students to sit both SAT and SAT Subject Tests.

This is becoming an increasingly important way of adding value to university applications.  As part of our high school provision, all Year 12 students are assisted in organising a work placement lasting at least one week.
