Unicorns, Kilts, & College Dreams: The Magic of Scottish & US Higher Education
Session Description
Why chase just one unicorn when you can explore an entire herd? Scotland’s four-year degree offers international students a flexible, dynamic path to discovering their passions—just like the U.S. college structure. This session, featuring the University of Edinburgh, the University of Aberdeen and the University of Strathclyde from Scotland, and Fordham University from New York, will compare the two education systems, showcasing why students should look beyond London and consider a four-year education experience. UCAS will present exclusive data on Scottish applications and trends, offering key insights, and we will delve into academic breadth, student life, and career opportunities across both the US and Scottish systems. Counsellors will leave equipped to help students unlock a world of possibilities—because sometimes, the best opportunities lie where you least expect them!
