BEST of U Mountain View
Event Information
Description
You are warmly invited to attend a UK Education event on Monday 12th September 2016 at Saint Francis High School in Mountain View.
Going to university in another country is an exciting life-changing adventure. If you are considering overseas study as your next step, do not miss this chance to meet 5 of the top UK universities and find out more about the opportunities available. All of the BEST of U Universities are ranked amongst the top 150 in the world and are based in five very different locations spread across England, so you can be sure of a world-leading education in a new and exciting city.
The UK is an increasingly popular study destination for US students due to its reputation for world-class education. In England, degree programmes are shorter in length as there are no general studies - you specialise from day one through to graduation in the subjects that interest you. Students coming to England to study can expect to achieve a Bachelor's degree in three years and a Master's degree in just one year, making the UK a far more affordable option than you might expect.
The 5 Russell Group Universities attending are as follows:
• The University of Southampton
The evening’s activities will be structured as follows:
6:15pm: Start of guest arrival
6:30-7:15pm: UCAS Personal Statement workshop
7:15-7:35pm: Study in the UK: Discover how a UK Education will get you a step ahead
