UWC China Joint Selection Committee recently received requests from several overseas UWCs to enroll more students from the mainland of China. Additional spaces offered by overseas UWCs are for IBDP. We welcome students who are keen to join the UWC family and have the desire to contribute to world peace and a sustainable future to apply.

Our Chinese students' outstanding achievements and contributions in overseas UWCs have drawn increasing attention from UWCs all over the world. They do not only excel in academics, but also integrate into UWC colleges with their unique perspectives and courageously participation, with the challenges of learning and living in foreign countries. They also demonstrate strong learner agency, promote Chinese culture, lead and participate in community services. They have become an indispensable part of the worldwide UWC community. Our Chinese students’ accomplishments at UWC schools have also been recognized by well-known universities worldwide. More and more Chinese students are admitted to top universities and liberal art colleges, such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford and Williams.

There is no separate admission process for the additional spaces that we have been allocated by overseas UWC schools. Students in grades 10 or 11 can apply by completing our online application following instructions on our website.

* Deadline for first round EA3 application is May 6th, with online assessment held on May 16-17. Applications submitted after May 6th will be selected in the next round.

UWC schools and colleges bring students from around the world together to make education a force for peace and sustainability

Central to the ethos of UWC is the belief that education can bring together young people from all backgrounds to engage in an educational program that promotes social change through courageous action, personal example and selfless leadership. To achieve this, UWC schools and colleges all over the world deliver a challenging and transformational educational experience to a deliberately diverse group of young people, inspiring them to become agents of positive change.

Today, UWC has 18 schools and colleges on 4 continents, the majority of which focus exclusively on the 16-19 year-old age group: a time when young people’s energy and idealism can be guided towards empathy, responsibility and lifelong action. These colleges teach the International Baccalaureate (IB) Diploma as their formal curriculum, a qualification that UWC played a major part in developing, while also emphasising the importance of experiential learning, community service and outdoor activities.
