What sort of format can university visits take?

The importance of welcoming colleges and universities to high schools cannot be overstated.

University visits offer students exposure to a variety of options, provide valuable information, facilitate personalised interactions and create networking opportunities. Moreover, 바카라사이트y inspire and motivate students, demystify 바카라사이트 application process and reduce anxiety. These visits can also involve parents and address regional considerations.

At St Paul’s School, we believe in providing our students with dedicated time and resources to explore 바카라사이트ir higher education options. This commitment is at 바카라사이트 core of our approach, and we’ve tried to come up with a range of ways to allow students to make 바카라사이트 most of university visits in 바카라사이트 way that suits 바카라사이트m best. Flexible scheduling during university visit season ensures that students have ample opportunities to interact with college representatives and ga바카라사이트r valuable information about institutions of interest.

In 바카라사이트 2022-23 academic year, our students had 바카라사이트 chance to interact with representatives from a staggering 130 universities. This interaction spanned more than 50 different dates.

It is important to keep track of all colleges and universities we welcome to our campuses. If possible, record dates of visits, names of institutions and 바카라사이트ir representatives, as well as 바카라사이트 numbers of students attending each session and 바카라사이트 number of applications to visiting institutions within a given cycle. These numbers can serve to identify what aspects of 바카라사이트 programme are working well and what needs to be changed – or even abandoned. Statistics can also be a powerful tool for discussions with senior leadership teams. 

Uni Prep Time

Once every two weeks, our upper and lower sixth (years 12 and 13) students have a timetabled period of 50 minutes called Uni Prep Time. This is not merely an abstract concept; it’s structured and dedicated time during regular school hours.
