ADMISSIONS

FELLOWSHIP GRANTS

All accepted students will receive a Fellowship Grant committing students to create a personal project that will benefit a local or global community

Coming Together is a Beginning

The College Fellowship Grant is an exceptional international fellowship programme, enabling students from around the world to take part in a transformational experience unlike any other.

 

The Fellowship is not just a financial bursary, it is a life-changing opportunity for exceptional young people with the potential to make a difference and a vision of how the world could be better with the energy to do so– whatever their sphere of interest. 

​

Students are selected not only based on academic achievement but also on character, leadership and commitment to serve, qualities The College cultivates, with educational journeys, programmes, retreats, workshops and conferences, in addition to social and discussion events.

​

The College Fellowship calls on students from all over the world to become part of a cause,  entering a life-long fellowship with ongoing opportunities to connect with change-makers, professionals and Senior Scholars in a warm and engaging community that develops enduring friendships. The College Fellowship offers students exceptional opportunities that will amplify their skills and purpose,  from the moment they join and beyond. 

HOW WE ASSESS APPLICANTS

Our classes are small, therefore we cannot accept all qualified students.  Our Admissions Committee reviews each application holisticlly, taking into consideration a range of factors; not one item is the deciding factor.

​

We evaluate an applicant's candidacy in three areas:

Academic Ability

​

The College places students by ability rather than age or grade level, where students complete a syllabus rather than a grade.

Applicants must be prepared for the rigor of The College tutorials and have demonstrated a history of academic achievement and desire for challenge.

We look for this dedication to academic pursuits and intellectual curiosity by assessing:

​

  • Grades (overtime)

  • The rigor of the current academic programme

  • School type and curriculum

  • Academic classes taken outside the student's school

  • Teacher's recommendations

  • Personal essays

  • Personal statement

  • Interview

  • Diagnostic test results 

Personal Qualities

​

We select students who will become active contributing members of The College Fellowship community and who will engage in the life of the college and its pursuits.  We look for this level of engagement by assessing:

​

  • Personal essays

  • Interview

  • Current extracurricular involvement

  • Demonstrated leadership in student's current school community

  • Teacher recommendations

  • Parents questionnaire

​

​​

A Good Fit

​

The Admissions Committee seeks students who demonstrate a clear understanding of the college's teaching model and show independence, self-advocacy, strong time-management skills, and appropriate maturity.  We assess this in:

​

  • Personal essays

  • Personal statement

  • Interview

  • Teacher recommendations

  • Parents questionnaire
