University Guidance
Our university counsellor guides and assists students through the university application process.
All students undertake the IB Diploma Programme, which prepares them for tertiary studies around the world. The IB and UWC have gained recognition and respect from the world’s leading universities, and each year we host university admissions representatives from around the world to meet with our students.
University Destinations
After graduation, our students study at international universities in the Nordic region, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and across Europe, Asia and South America.
Many UWC students choose to attend colleges in the United States where they might qualify for the Davis UWC Scholars Program, or in Canada where several merit scholarships are available.
At the same time, we recognise that university is not the immediate next step for everyone. UWC students often recognise their own potential to lead positive change in peace and sustainability without an undergraduate degree. Therefore, a small number of our students choose to take a gap year. These experiences often include volunteering, internships, travel or engagements with different projects.
