University Placement

There comes a time when a student has to choose a university and course of study. The process of reaching a decision is long and involved, and should not be rushed. The student must make a sensible assessment of his or her academic ability in consultation with teachers and apply to universities where he or she has a reasonable chance of gaining a place. The college counsellor will guide and help students with this decision making process.

There is no difficulty about applying with A-Levels to universities in the UK, the USA, Canada, New Zealand or Australia. They are an internationally recognised qualification and syllabuses are highly regarded by admissions tutors.

KYUEM staff has considerable experience in helping students to write applications to overseas universities mainly in the UK. We have close links with the educational offices of various universities and countries. We provide comprehensive and personal advice to all students applying to universities. The preparation we offer varies such as:

Help with Choosing Courses, Universities and Writing Personal Statements.

Students are initially guided through big group meetings by the University Guidance Counsellor and then supported through individual and small group counselling sessions by tutors as they progress through the course. The ongoing support ensures that every student gets good advice for university application mainly for the UK but also for the US, Irish and Australian universities.

Interviews and University Visits

Students applying to read Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Science or applying to Oxford and Cambridge universities are often required to attend interviews as part of the admissions process. Our teachers and external consultants provide mock interviews so that students are well-prepared for these interviews.

The college also receives regular visits from academics and admissions tutors from highly reputable universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, London School of Economics, University College London, Warwick and countless other well-known seats of learning throughout the year giving students the opportunity to get first-hand information. The Irish university visits are as regular as the British institutions.
