UCL is truly one of the world’s top universities.  Having started teaching in 1826, it vies with Durham University for the honor of the third-oldest university in England; what’s for sure is that UCL was the from its inception, UCL was the first university in the UK to accept students irrespective of their religion and beliefs.  Nowadays, it is the UK’s second-largest university, with 38,000 students, supported by 7,000 academic staff and 840 professors - the most teaching staff of any UK institution. Unusually, UCL has slightly more postgraduates than undergraduates, demonstrating the depth of its ongoing research work.

Currently UCL ranks 10th in the UK, with 25 subject areas within the top 10.  Student W has the opportunity to study in one of the very best Psychology departments, ranked 5th in the UK and linked to UCL’s academic health science centre - the largest hospital-based health sciences department in the world, which has been influential in many medical innovations, such as the discovery of hormones.

Student P, Student M, and Student Y, University of Manchester

Our UK offers keep on coming, with three more offers for the University of Manchester.  Student Y in Shenzhen has an offer for Physics, while Student H, studying internationally, has an offer for Environmental Science.  We're also very excited that Student P in Shanghai has an offer for second-year entry to BSc Mathematics with Financial Mathematics - allowing him to transfer from his current university straight into the second year of study in Manchester!

The teaching approach at Manchester is research-led, having been heavily influenced by German approaches to university study in the 19th century, with many of the university’s early leaders having themselves graduated from the University of Heidelberg. Nowadays, Manchester has the highest income of research funding from professional indutries, as well as being voted the ‘most-targeted’ university for graduate recruitment by the UK’s top 100 employers. Academically, it sits 15th overall in the UK rankings, with 19 subjects in the top 10, including music, dentistry, optometry, physics, mathematics, linguistics, anthropology and regional studies for North America, the Middle East, Africa and East Asia.

Over its history, Manchester has produced a very wide range of successful alumni and employed a host of prestigious academics, across many different fields.  Perhaps the most significant are Alan Turing, whose pioneering work in founding the field of computer science helped the University of Manchester develop the world’s first fully-functional electronic computer. Notable others include the philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstien, who studied for a PhD at Manchester, the world-renowned architect Norman Foster, the actor Benedict Cumberbatch and deputy prime minister of Singapore Teo Chee Hean.

Student L and Student E, The University of Warwick

We are extremely happy that Student L from Shanghai has been accepted to the University of Warwick for Mathematics, as has Student E from Australia for Economics, Psychology and Philosophy!

The University of Warwick has built a strong international reputation since its founding in 1965, consistently ranking in and around the UK top 10 for the past two decades.  It currently sits 11th in the UK, with 17 subject areas ranked in the top 10. Warwick is best known for its Mathematics course, which has some of the toughest entry requirements for Mathematics in the UK, on a par with Oxford, Imperial and UCL.  

The university was one of the first to pursue strong links with employers, and now ranks 4th on the annual survey of universities ‘most targeted’ by top companies.  Industry links are especially strong with the automotive sector, with Warwick recently opening a new campus in collaboration with Jaguar-Land Rover, for the study and research of automotive engineering.  Warwick has a very active and diverse alumni network, ranging from winners of the Nobel prizes in Chemistry and Economics, to the Presidents of Iceland and Cameroon, to the recent CEOs of Kraft-Heinz and Aston Martin.  They also boast the founder of the Lonely Planet guidebooks.

We can’t wait to see Student L and Student E achieve their own successes!

Student E and Student T, The University of Bristol

Our successful UK university results continue with 2 acceptances to the University of Bristol. Bristol has long been a scientific and technological hub in the UK, playing a key role in many of the innovations that spurred on the industrial revolution two centuries ago. Ranked 16th overall, the modern-day university offers strong programs in mathematics, engineering, and applied sciences.

Student E has been accepted for BEng Aerospace Engineering, studying in Bristol’s prestigious Faculty of Engineering, which ranks second for Engineering in the UK. Founded with an endowment from the Bristol Aeroplane Company in 1946, the Department of Aerospace Engineering maintains close connections with nearby aerospace companies such as Airbus, Rolls Royce, and BAE Systems. Following his impressive UK university results, we hope Student E can build on his research experience to follow in the footsteps of other legendary Bristol-based engineers!

Meanwhile, Student T will be among the second group of students studying at the university’s beautiful new School of Mathematics building, pursuing a BSc in Mathematics that includes the option of an integrated fourth year for an MSci degree. Great work by Student T and his UK Graduate Coach, who navigated him through the process of applying from a less well-known European high school curriculum. Congratulations to them both on their impressive UK university results!

Student H, The University of Durham

Congratulations to our student Student H, accepted to John Snow College at the University of Durham for a Liberal Arts BA!

Ranked 6th in the UK, Durham is the third-oldest university in England. It is also one of the only universities outside Oxford and Cambridge to have a collegiate structure, with each student applying directly to one of the 16 small colleges within the wider university - combining big university resources with the small, intimate classes of a liberal arts college.

Student H will study the innovative Liberal Arts course, allowing her to combine four subjects over three years, graduating with a double major combining Arts, Humanities, and Social Science subjects such as Classics, Philosophy, History, Education, Politics, Economics, Anthropology, English, and Business. This course looks for applicants who are highly intellectual, very self-motivated, and have creative cross-disciplinary skills. Student H’s work with her UK graduate coach at InGenius Prep allowed her to highlight her leadership in bringing together students for academic conferences, as well as her experience researching Greek and Chinese classical philosophy alongside a NYU professor.

Student B, The University of Newcastle

Congratulations to Student B from Shanghai who has been accepted to Newcastle University to study Architecture!

The picturesque city centre campus is next to lively St. James’s Park football stadium, while there are additional campuses in London (Business School), Malaysia (Medical School) and Singapore. Newcastle University is ranked 22nd overall in the UK, with 15 subject areas in the top 10.  As might be expected given its origins, the university has a strong Medical School, ranking 2nd for Physiology and 5th for Dentistry.  The Medical School is at the forefront of medical research in the UK, and was the second school in the world permitted to conduct research on human stem cells.

Student B has the opportunity to join the excellent School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape, ranked 8th in the UK for Architecture.  Students have 24-hour access to their own dedicated design studio, plus brand new workshops for laser cutting and 3D printing. We’re thrilled for her, and wish her the best of luck on her first steps in the world of architecture!
