“The SI-UK offices, from Nagpur to Tokyo and beyond, give my international team an opportunity to directly engage with some of the best students we see, and the formal events (fairs, training sessions etc) are everything we could wish for,” said David Street, Head of International Recruitment, University of Winchester.
Distinct requirements from UCL
UCL, a distinguished top-ranked university, adheres to a stringent approach in recruiting undergraduate students. UCL does not collaborate with external agents for the recruitment of undergraduate programs. Prospective students are encouraged to apply for undergraduate programs at UCL through the official UCL admissions portal, thereby upholding the highest academic standards.
Acknowledging the distinct requirements of graduate-taught programs, UCL has established a strategic partnership with SI-UK, with the collaboration aiming to attract the most highly qualified candidates for UCL’s MA, MSc, and LLM programs. The partnership with SI-UK commenced in March 2021.
Rob Grimshaw, CEO of SI-UK, expressed excitement about the partnership, emphasizing their commitment to supporting international students in their academic endeavors in the UK. The objective is to enhance the accessibility and enriching experience of studying in the UK for students globally.
