2025, Concordian International School welcomed more than 60 universities from over 10 countries to our annual International University Fair. The fair brought world-class institutions directly to our students, giving them an invaluable opportunity to explore global pathways and gain firsthand insight into university life.
world-renowned hospitality schools, such as Les Roches, Glion, EHL, and the Swiss Education Group, offered valuable insight into management, luxury brand, and culinary careers. European creative institutions such as Istituto Marangoni, NABA, Domus Academy, and University of the Arts London were also present to inspire aspiring designers and artists.
Representatives travelled from across the world, including the UK, USA, Australia, Europe, China, Japan, Singapore, Ireland, Hong Kong, and Switzerland, to meet our Grade 9–12 students. Many of the world’s top-ranked universities were present. From the UK, students spoke with representatives from University of Cambridge, Imperial College London, King’s College London, Durham University, the University of Manchester, University of Bristol, University of Warwick, and University of St Andrews, among others. Australia was strongly represented with leading institutions such as University of Melbourne, University of Sydney, Monash University, UNSW Sydney, and UTS College.
The university fair greatly benefited our students by exposing them to a broad range of global study options, enabling them to compare different education systems and discover pathways they may not have previously considered. It also provided direct access to admissions experts, allowing students to ask personalised questions about programmes, scholarships, portfolios, and entry requirements; guidance that is often far more valuable than online research alone. Finally, the fair motivated students across all grade levels, inspiring them to reflect on their future goals, focus on their academic performance, and make more informed choices about IB subjects, extracurricular involvement, and long-term planning.
Asia’s top universities, including Fudan University, Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Sophia University, and the Singapore Institute of Management attracted significant interest, especially from students considering regional options. Switzerland’s
The 2025 International University Fair strengthened Concordian’s global connections and empowered our students to confidently explore the world of higher education.
