The world of University Education comes to the Wellington community

The Second International University Fair, hosted by Wellington College International Tianjin

On Friday 9th October, The Careers Department at Wellington College International Tianjin once again assembled some of the big names of the world of higher education at the school’s Second Annual International University Fair. With participating universities from the US, UK, Australia, Ireland, France, Switzerland and China, the event provided pupils, parents and staff with a platform to communicate on a one-to-one basis with official representatives of leading global educational institutions.

The event – held in the Sports Hall of the first overseas sister school of the UK’s prestigious Wellington College, was open not only to the pupils, parents and staff at Wellington, but more significantly the event offered an opportunity for the entire international and local community in Tianjin to better understand the world of international higher education.

As a school that teaches Critical Thinking and Well-Being, the fair further encouraged the need for pupils to be inquisitive and selective when making decisions in regard to higher education abroad. Parents attended in great number, eager to gain a better understanding of how best to support their children throughout their respective examination and application processes.
