UWC 2020-2022

Hello!
I was wondering if anyone was applying for the UWC this year. If so, then from which National Committee are you applying from?

I’m applying from the US! Super, super nervous, and I don’t think I’ve ever wanted anything more.

How about you? Where are you applying from?

I am applying through the National Committee of India. I can totally relate to how you are feeling right now! It is such a nerve-wracking process. I am currently filling in my application.
Have you started writing your application? How are you finding your essay questions?

In the Indian application, we have to choose the UWC institution we would like to attend. I have decided to go for Pearson College, ISAK Japan and Mahindra College.
(honestly, I am happy to attend any).
Which UWC school do you want to attend?

I am applying through the US national committee. Do any of know when you find out about if you made the cut for an interview and when they are?

My daughter was informed last week that she will hear if her UWC application has made it through to the interview stage, during the week of November, 18th. She applied through the US national committee.

I think I did get something similar they said they got my application and were looking over it and wanted to know if I was taking either an ACT, SAT or PSAT. But either way it is super nerve racking and good luck to you daughter!

Thanks! My daughter heard yesterday that she is a scholarship semi-finalist. She is SO happy. Her Skype interview is within a few days. Good luck to you, too!

That’s great! I too just found out that I am a semi finalist yesterday, I have yet to find out when my interview will be. Hope she does well in the Interview!

I’m a semi-finalist as well! I have no idea when my interview will be, and I’m getting nervous about it. It’s been a week since they notified me. Does everyone else know when their interview is?

Thanks for the well-wishes. My daughter had her interview and feels it went well. Finalists will be notified next month, so those of you without dates will probably get interview dates from early till mid December.

Hey! I also am having my interview soon for the US national committee! Do you all mind if we have a chat. We are gonna get through this together ?

I’d like to have a chat. I have so many questions, especially about finances and the application processes… I found some college tuition costs reported by UWCWK online and my mom nearly had a heart attack… even with a $25,000 scholarship, we can’t afford to pay more than like, $5,000 a year and several of the colleges cost $40,000 a year or more (including UWC-USA!)

I’m scared of getting all the way through this and being told that I can’t go because they want me to pay more than I can afford.

That being said though, I have an interview set for December 6th. Good luck to you all!

I’d love to chat, my interview is this Sunday and I am SUPER nervous!

Hey! I just applied through the Pakistan NC last night! I’d love to chat! I’m really anxious because I find out if I get an interview in February - that seems so far awAY omg.
@jcald34 The fees are worrying me too :confused: Especially since I’m afraid I’ll have to end up paying for an A Level school before I even know if I’ve gotten into UWC!

I just had my interview, I was super nervous at the beginning and I paused before each of my answers but after a while I feel I did fairy well. To be honest it was not that bad but I am wondering if I did well or not.

Hey! It’s Raymond again. Where should we have a chat? WhatsApp, Messenger, IG? I am fine with any! Here are my handles : FB: Raymond Liu Ao, IG: @raymondliuao, WhatsApp: PM Me

I think IG would be best for a chat. I’ll add you, Raymond. If anyone else wants to join us, my @ is jcald.34

Hey! Current UWC student here, lmk if you have any questions!
