Would you be more competitive for Oxbridge or the Ivy League?
Which university would you thrive and succeed in? Let Former Admissions Officers from Oxford and Harvard tell you!
Harvard and Oxford are two of the world’s most sought-after universities, receiving tens of thousands of shining applications from ambitious students every year. In fact, over 63,000 students combined apply every year and both produce outstanding amounts of incredible alumni.
But these numbers are fighting against admission rates as low as 4%.
Have you ever wondered how admissions officers read applications? What they are thinking when they decide whether an applicant is accepted, waitlisted, or rejected?
We have invited Former Admissions Officers from Harvard and Oxford to answer these questions and unveil the truths of elite university admissions.
We hope to leave you with only one question; will you be UK-bound or heading state-side?
What we will cover:
- What’s involved in submitting an application to Oxford and Harvard
- What Admissions Officers are looking for when they read a prospective student’s applications
- How you can level up your candidacy & strengthen your application
- The latest admission trends
- 7 big questions for our Former Admissions Officers about; who they admit, their opinion on admission trends and why their university is the best
There will be a live Q&A at the end of this webinar, so bring your questions to the table!
