US universities talk

Admissions officers from Harvard College and the University of Chicago spoke to students from year 9 and upwards, their parents and guests from schools across London on Tuesday 27 September. They shared what makes their universities unique, explained how US and UK admissions processes differ and answered many questions from the audience. Significant needs-based financial aid, potentially covering nearly all costs of attendance, is available from these leading universities as from many of their peers. Sixth formers also had the chance to meet and chat briefly with the speakers before the presentation at what was a highly informative event.
