UWCSEA: United World College South East Asia

Day: SGD$410 single campus; $820 dual campus; Boarding: $550 to be considered for both

The date of application is not relevant, and nor is there a deadline by which you need to apply - although 90% of places are offered by the end of February.If you apply earlier in the application cycle then you will be considered for more spaces than if you apply later, simply because most of the spaces are allocated by end of March each year. Having said that, there are sometimes 'late leavers' during the summer months so you should contact Admissions.

K1–Grade 9: places are offered in November, February and April, and so applications should be submitted in advance of these months.

Grade 10 FIB and IB Diploma and all boarding applications should be submitted before February, as testing and interviews take place in February and March.

Applications made later are considered for places that may arise, based on:

K1–Grade 8: applicants can be considered to replace students who leave the College up to the start of Term 3 in April

Grade 9, Grade 10FIB and Grade 11: up to the start of Term 1 in August

K1-G1 - SGD$29,145; G2-G5 - SGD$29,280; G6-G10 (IGCSE) - SGD$34,695; G10FIB-G12 - SGD$36,045

UWCSEA Nominee Programme is not really a debenture (as they operate in Hong Kong) but is a Corporate Subscription programme.

Applications open 12 months ahead of each new academic year. For example, applications to join the College in August 2016 opened on Tuesday, 1 September 2015.

All applications need to be submitted via our online system, which captures a full profile to use in assessing the application against the entrance and allocation criteria explained below.

Applicants need to demonstrate the qualities and skills that will enable them to thrive in the UWCSEA learning programme. Specifically this includes a positive approach to learning and an academic profile that indicates an applicant can progress in with confidence our learning programme. We also look at an applicant’s English language proficiency and any individual learning needs they may have, to ensure we can provide any support needed.

Above all, our allocation policy is driven by our mission and our commitment to diversity: we are looking to build balanced and diverse cohorts in each grade level.

All applicants who meet our entrance criteria (and so are ‘eligible’ to be offered a place) are placed in the application ‘pool’ to be considered for available places in the upcoming academic year.

Places are allocated according to a range of factors which includes personality, interests, proactive involvement in school and community life as well as gender, age and the extent to which the applicant’s experience and background adds to the diversity of the College.
