As the academic year draws to a close, we proudly celebrate the many milestones of our graduating class. With final exams on the horizon, our seniors are also looking forward to the paths that await them.

 

Many students have already received university offers that reflect their ambition, dedication, and perseverance throughout the year.

 

Over the course of a recent weekend, three students received acceptances to Ivy League universities. Fope will be attending Princeton University to study Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering; Jurgen is headed to the University of Pennsylvania to pursue Computer Science and Electrical Engineering; and Jaiden has been accepted to Cornell University, where he will study Computer Science.

 

Other students have also received offers from institutions across the globe. In the United States, these include Duke University, Northwestern, Northeastern, New York University, and University of Michigan. In the UK, acceptances include the University of York, University of Edinburgh, Durham University, and King’s College London. Offers in Europe and Canada include Bocconi University, IE University, John Cabot University, McGill, University of Cardiff, and Ecole Hôtelière de Lausanne.

 

In addition to hosting the Council of International Schools University and College Fair, which brought over 80 institutions to our campus, we’ve welcomed numerous international and Dutch universities throughout the school year. These visits have given our students valuable opportunities to connect directly with the schools and expand their vision for the future. We’ve welcomed representatives from top universities, such as Yale University, Bristol University, University of St. Andrews, and many more . Recently, a visit from around 20 Dutch institutions including Eindhoven University of Technology, Erasmus University, and Leiden University shared their diverse portfolios and offers.

 

While many of our students are continuing their academic journeys in higher education, some have chosen to first take time in meaningful gap years, participating in projects ranging from teaching and theater to marine conservation research.

 

Graduation, and our students’ decisions on what happens after it, are tremendous achievements we’re proud to celebrate. But most importantly, we celebrate the growth, resilience, curiosity and relationships they’ve been able to develop throughout their time at ASH to build a bright future ahead.
