St George’s British International School is proud to announce that the current cohort of Year 13 pupils - the Class of 2024 - have achieved a combined 250 offers, and rising, to universities around the world. 

Following the recent conclusion of the IB examinations, students are in the process of deciding their first choice university destination based on the range of offers that they have received. The class eagerly awaits the release of the IB results in July. 

UK Popularity Continues
The United Kingdom is once again the destination of choice for the majority of the graduating class, with 185 offers of admission received via UCAS to date. Headline offers include the University of Cambridge, King’s College London (16 offers), UCL (9 offers), Imperial College London (2 offers), University of Warwick (7 offers), Durham University (4 offers), University of St Andrews (3 offers), Loughborough University (4 offers), University of Bath (8 offers) and University of Exeter (8 offers). 

North American Success
In excess of 20 offers of admission have been received for US and Canadian universities, including Caltech, University of Chicago, NYU, University of Toronto, Tufts University, The University of Colorado at Boulder and the University of Massachusetts.

European Offers
Closer to home, the Netherlands is once again an in-demand destination for St George’s graduates, with 20 offers of admission received from the country’s leading universities including Eindhoven, Maastricht, Groningen, Twente, Tilburg and Erasmus University Rotterdam. Within Italy, offers of admission have been secured for Bocconi, La Sapienza and LUISS. Students have also achieved admission to top universities in France, Spain, Denmark, the Czech Republic and Hungary.

Ireland and Australia, both of which attract university applications from St George’s pupils, will release their decisions later in the year. 

Ms Lyndsay Dourdin, Head of University Guidance and Careers at St George’s, said: “The impressive range of offers received this year confirms once again that St George’s graduates are highly sought after by leading universities around the world. The rigorous IB Diploma prepares students thoroughly for undergraduate study and this is underpinned by the holistic approach to education offered at St George’s. Each member of Year 13 should be very proud and pleased with their achievements, and we are excited to see which university each pupil will ultimately select for the next stage of their education.”

Further achievements, and the confirmed destinations of the Class of 2024, will be shared via the school’s social media channels in the summer and in the Autumn term of 2024.
