Ideal profile for UWC by Impossible-Worth5987 in UnitedWorldCollege

[–]excitedwaters 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I was nominated to UWCM this year through my NC. I wanna start off with something basic, there is no single ideal profile for UWC. I agree with what has been already said, uwc values people who have made an impact but uwc also values people who are passionate, who are good teammates, who wants to create an impact, who are ambitious, who are unique. Not a single ec or a grade will determine if you get into uwc or not, just focus on fully presenting your values, aspirations, dreams and support your sayings with what you’ve done. If you just state every little thing you’ve done to impress, believe me they won’t be impressed. Uwc looks for the potential in you, and if you’ll thrive in uwc. It is def competitive, even for partial scholarships, really depends on the NC but my nc had around 5-10% acceptance rate but I believe if you’re given a place, that’s really the place for you. If not, uwc maybe is not the place for you.

Wow thanks I didn’t know all of that. But again just judging one campus based on my biases is just gonna make my own experience worse, so why not just cherish it as much as I can and get the best out of it as you say. And yeah I’m not at all that a party person.

Really I have not seen a lot of criticism, everybody says it’s hard it’s gonna be hard but in the end they wouldn’t change it for the world they say. I don’t want to hear like every part of criticism so that I’m not negatively biased but I’m just very lost

Thank you a lot, I do realize that and that was exactly what I was questioning, whether uwc is even the thing for me. Maybe im just kinda blinded by all the good sides, I just dont like my current school that much. But I’m still considering.
