Yesterday I start watching youre videos becouse i'm aplyying to UWC and it's so amazing to found someone that talk about his experience, love u
good luck!! you've got this xx
I’m mostly convinced that she is a girl so you can say her* experience
same. i'm also applying
Same! Am applying too
do u have to apply 1 year before?
"I Loved Bones"
😂😂
Thank you so much for all the videos you post, they’re so helpful! 💗
thank youu for watching and supporting me 💕🌟🥰
thank you for this video!! been waiting for something like that. i feel kinda bad about myself now tho, your application is impressive.. luckily i have a whole year (or two) to start shining, my motivation is like crazy;;; love you!
ohh don't worry!! you can make anything sound impressive if it's worded properly :)) good luck xx
@@savannahcjackson you're literally the sweetest :')
It's been two years, did you went to UWC?
I´ve started my application process this week, I´m so excited. Thank you for this video!
no problem, good luck!! :)
you got in ?
did j got in?
@@melyssa6828 no 😂. Oh well, I'll try again this year
@@melyssa6828 did you apply? I hope it went well ❤️
i really wanna apply but I feel like I don't do enough outside of school to be able to get in.. what should I do?
I think you should just apply. Maybe you are still perfect for the school. You never know
Hyungwon's Pineapple i wanna do some extra curricular stuff because i want to and because i wanna get into the school because i’m passionate about it. i’ve done projects with my school that they specifically picked me for and i have good grades but the last thing i did outside of school was gymnastics and that was like 2 years ago:/
@@shannnnn5150 I'm also going to apply and I'm looking for extracurriculars because not long ago I left gymnastics and now I don't do anything :')
If you really want it, you'll find a way. If you believe that having more "outside of school ___" then you should just do it. you only live once.
You are so perfect!!
I love your videos they are helping me so much.
no one is perfect!! but im supper happy to know i am helping ❤🥰
QUEEN
This was actually very helpful! Thanks and good luck!
starting to apply right now you're video was really insightful
Gonna apply this year,super nervous but your videos are helping so much,thankyou🥺

@@fahmidabrar4102 hey! did you get in??
Thank u soo much the vid really helped me :)
I’m applying this year since it’s been my number 1 dream since I was literally a toddler as I’ve grown up on UWC AC campus as a child of house parents, teacher and alumni
Same, I might apply this year as well but I don‘t fully understand how to apply. Could you explain how you do it please?
@@arjolakrasniqi405 I’m applying through the British national committee and on the website (UWC GB) there a section that says apply to UWC and on there it has the steps that you need to take :)
@@azaharaarchertalavera9455 thank you very much! I hope they‘ll accept you! :)
I can only apply for 2022 so I have to wait a year until I can apply (I‘ll go to the demanded class next year, therefore I can‘t apply right now)
@@arjolakrasniqi405 no problem and thank you.
Good luck for the future.:)
@@arjolakrasniqi405 Hi, do you have Instagram, could we talk on there please, I'm applying for 2022 too!
May be yes or not but in my opinion, every UWC students I have followed such as the beautiful girl above, they always create a kind of energy that I have no idea to describe but it's speacial thing!
I’m applying this year and I’m so nervous, I want it so bad
don't be nervous!! just try your best, that's all thay matters, good luck xx
@@savannahcjackson thank you so much
did you got in ?
@@annmaymonlaufer8030 did u got in?
can you create video what kind of question do they ask in interview. it is different to different application but during voyage of interview what what do they ask you and how you respond the question .
Thank you so much!
that weekly schedule though... Wednesday lunches *KILL* me. who reserves time for "collaboration?"
ahahah me apparently
I'm thinking of applying to uwc next year but I'm afraid that my weekly schedule won't be good enough sense I'm not doing a lot of "impressive" stuff...
Hi, do you have Instagram, could me talk on there if possible?
Hey I have a question and I really hope you can help me a lil. Anyways my achievements and extracurriculars are quite good but the only one problem are my grades (I have As and Bs except for math) but they said the grades aren’t the most important criteria but it does matter to have 3 of the most important subjects to have at least grade B (one of them is math). Do you still think I have chances?
I love your channel so much, I'm from Brazil and I intend to do the selective process
did u got in?
THANK U
Hi, I'm from Nigeria and I'm in the 11th grade. I want to know if the uwc essays come with the form or are they already on the website and I want to start practicing. I also want to know if I should apply after I've graduated from high school.
That's helped a lot
Thank uu sm💕
no problem 💞🌟 thank youu for supporting me 😊
i am applying this year and godddd im so nervoussssss!!! tysm for this video!! greetings from russia😳🤚💞
Yeah, it is very interesting, thank you!) In this year I will apply, hope I will go somewhere

I am writing my application now and it has been hard. Thanks for the video!!

@@alexandrugabrielburea6632 idk yet, I will only know the result in July
@@lumarios230 hope You make it,how was ur interview ?
@@alexandrugabrielburea6632 was really good!
Because you applied twice in uwc, could you tell me if the uwc applications are the same for both the years? If not, which sections are different and how different really are they?
Also, your videos help A LOTT! :)
And if we can write the same things in our extracurricular activities and essays?
Hiii just wondering can i use some of the stuff you said in my essay
Love this channel so much!
aww thank you!!
Could you tell me what were the phases of your country's selection?
In my country (Brazil) at first we have to make a test and the application, after the interview, and then lastly the "conviviality"
there's a written application, then interviews and a selection camp!!
vc é perfeitaaaaaaa
Does anyone know an alternative scholarship program because I do not met the UWC age requirements for my country but I desire to study abroad
UWC in my country will open the application in the next three months, Dec to Jan. Hope I achieve the application.
do you have any idea as to why you got rejected the first time? do they tell you a reason?
This video actually helped alot! Thank you♡
Applying to pearson college next

Me too probably! :)

Is it a problem if I’m gonna turn 20 in the end of 2 year ib? Like in February? Would I only be able to join usc schools that goes all the way up to 20? Or can I take the once’s that says until 18 or 19?
no not a problem at all! i had a friend who graduated at 21
@@savannahcjackson okay! Thank you so much for the answer
well in my country its apparently not allowed if you turn 18 by september 2021
Always when hearing other people’s essays makes mine look so bad. I don’t know if it’s because I don’t include what you might call fancy words. I don’t know how to use them. Any tips on writing essays?
Be yourself.Use grammarly if you want to correct your mistakes,and search for syonoynms to your expresions
AlexandruGabriel Burea yess I already have grammarly has helped me so much :))
@@michy4133 I find out today (I think) if I get an interview
AlexandruGabriel Burea that’s so cool. I applied to boarding schools already but haven’t gotten any results yet. Getting them around March 5-20 I believe.
AlexandruGabriel Burea wish you luck on your interview. Just be yourself they’re no that bad and believe me I deal with anxiety but once you get the hang of it all is alright.
Hi dear.im decide to attend for uwc.but my english is not good.can i succeed?
Getting a lot of help through ur video's , its easier to understand and let's hope I also get in 🌚🤞
good luck xx
Could make you a vidoe about get rejected of uwc? Please please please
U got rejected too? Welcome. Are u going to reapply?
I am currently writing my application and I am so nervous Thank you so much for the video 😭✋🏻
@The Dumb kid I mean if you don't pass the deadline while submitting then you don't get rejected but if you do then you're disqualified
oh you're here too mr. Flash!😁
hope you'll get in
@@rumi2474 I hope you get in too
@@Ash-sk1vr thx
@I support youtubers thx, and to answer your previous comment, it differs from country to country. Every national committee has their own application deadline.
O GOD I'm thinking of applying but I barely have any extra curriculars that actually help other pPl like tutoring!! im living in Myanmar n is in 7th grade N WE BARELY HAVE ANYTHING LIKE THT. GOD-
ill b applying for the 8th grade for next year. Which grade were u in when you were applied?
Where’s ur shirt from gurll? It’s so niceee

I am applying this year and honestly, I am already so nervous.

Have you joined the group of 2022 applicants (muwci)
@@harjashkaur2140 Not yet. The application process is still ongoing in my country. I don't know If I would even make it through.
@@broccoli9 You are applying through INC?
Hi! This year will be my first attempt into applying to UWC. I wanted to know, I'm 17 right now and if I get rejected this year can I apply again next year when I'm 18? Because on my national committee page it is written that to debut in UWC I should be under 18
Hii! This is a little late but most, if not all UWC will only accept those who’ve turned 16-17 before or after August 1st, which means that you can’t apply when 18. It most likely means that this will be your one year to apply
not at all! i would contact your national committee, but i had classmates who were 19 or even 20 when they started uwc:)) good luck xx
@@savannahcjackson oh really? I had no idea!! That might be through global committee?? Well in any case, Australia’s national committee doesn’t allow applications if you’re above 18 by august 1st of the year you apply. Sorry for the misinformation/misunderstanding then!
Heey! Thank you so much, this video helped me a lot, 'cause now I know how it's the application. I'll try to apply to UWC in the next year and I am already preparing myself.
Sorry, English is not my mother's tongue.
Thanks, another Brazilian.
glad i could help! but know that all applications are different for every national committee and can change from year to year
Oh, ok, thank you.
It was just to get an idea of what I should think.
Hi, do you have Instagram, could we talk on there please, I'm applying for 2022 too!

Did you completely leave what you were doing after you got rejected by uwc and applied to uwc without thinking that you have paid any sorts of admission fees? Also, this was a super helpful video, can't thank you more if these tips get me into uwc next year!! :)
sorry i don't understand the question! could you rephrase it?
Hi . Are you going to apply for the year 2021-2023 ? Where are you from (india?)?

What laptop do u use??

Hey, I was wondering if you got in the first time or tried twice? Also thank you very much, this helps a lot.
i applied to UWC twice!
@@savannahcjackson Okay, thank you very much!
So if you're only able to go for your last two years in high school, then if you get rejected the first time but accepted the second, do you only go for a year?? I'm just learning about uwc and I havent been able to find a clear answer about this😅
not quite! no matter what you attend for two years. doesn't matter how old you are when you are admitted
@@savannahcjackson so if I'm 16 but I'm in 9th grade, can i still go??
im not sure, it depends on your national committee. you might have to wait one year, but i suggest you email them to ask:)
thank you soooooo much you are incredibly cute
I’m so late for applying 😔, idk if I can go next year (for 12th)
