BSB Pre-University Students Access to Top Universities around the World
It has been fantastic to witness so many BSB Pre-University students achieving or exceeding the results they hoped for at the Summer 2024 Exams Season and to see them now embark on the next stage of their lives. They worked incredibly hard to secure a place on the courses of their choice, and regardless of their chosen destinations, we are confident they are well-prepared to succeed at great universities around the world.
- 33% of our leavers going straight to university directly after graduation have chosen to go on to study in the UK, gaining entry to some of the very best UK universities, including Cambridge, Newcastle, Warwick, Imperial College London, King’s College London, Bristol and UCL (University College London).
- The picture for Spain is equally strong with 43% of our graduates choosing to remain in Spain and gaining places and, in several cases, scholarships, as well as two MatrÃculas de Honor to excellent public and private universities including ESADE, Complutense Madrid, University of Barcelona (UB), IE University and La Salle, amongst others.
- We also have 24% of our graduating students going to other European universities in The Netherlands, Ireland, France, Belgium, Italy, Switzerland and Germany, or travelling to US universities to continue their studies.
Interestingly, there has been a significant increase in the number of students opting to have a GAP year, with 14% of students doing this before taking up their university places.
We wish them all the best of luck with the exciting future that lies ahead!
