University offers for Sevenoaks students from leading UK, US and international institutions
Midway through the higher education admissions cycle, our Upper Sixth students have already received an impressive range of offers from UK, US and international universities. This year Sevenoaks students have applied through UCAS to UK universities, and to date they have received 512 UK offers, including 31 offers from Oxford and Cambridge (13 from Oxford and 18 from Cambridge), 51 from Exeter, 44 from UCL and 41 from Bristol.
Large numbers of our students continue to apply abroad: 35 per cent of the year group have applied to at least one country outside of the UK. Nineteen students have received unconditional offers from prestigious American institutions, namely Brown, the California Institute of Technology, The University of Chicago, Claremont McKenna, Dartmouth, The Georgia Institute of Technology, Johns Hopkins, Middlebury, the Minerva Schools at KGI, Northeastern, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of Pennsylvania, Williams College, the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Yale.
This early application round for the US is a highly competitive entry point, with applications this year widely reported as higher than ever before.
Twenty-three students are applying to Canadian universities, including McGill, Toronto and UBC; 10 students to universities within Asia, in Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Japan, and Thailand, and 24 students have applied within Europe including to Bocconi, Sciences Po, and Trinity College Dublin, as well as other universities in France, Italy, Switzerland and the Netherlands.
Many congratulations to our students for securing these offers. The UCAS deadline was 29 January and the outcomes of many applications are still unknown, with most UK decisions expected to be known by April and May.
