This is our major annual event for students, attended by over 100 students, parents and teachers. Tickets are
completely free for students
and £10 for an accompanying parent
(there
is a limit of one parent per student). Tickets for
teachers cost
£45 + VAT
(including a catered dinner/drinks reception 7.30pm-8.30pm).
This interactive, fun evening is aimed at students thinking of applying to the US, their parents, and any teachers or school counsellors who deal with US applications. It will involve a mock admissions activity in small groups, where students and parents play the part of an admissions officer choosing between students applying to the different colleges. This allows them to get a deep insight into how admissions officers make their decisions, which gives students a big advantage when it comes to making their US applications.
Each group makes 'decisions' for several fictitious students about where they would be admitted, and at the end the colleges reveal who they would have admitted and why.
Each group will be helped by an experienced admissions expert. Senior admissions professionals at several leading US universities will be attending.
Highlights include:
-
Chance to see what goes on in the mind of an admissions officer at a top US college
-
The opportunity to get feedback directly from admissions officers
-
An insight into how decisions are made, and what sort of students colleges are looking for
