Now that you’ve just gotten your results (and are reeling/revelling from it), you may be thinking about further education. While Singapore has a number of respectable universities, no doubt some of you will want to take a 3-4 year break from this tiny island.
You’ve probably heard that a bunch of universities from practically all over the world will descend upon us in March, so that all you prospective students can speak to representatives from schools, colleges, and universities about the hundreds of programmes available, you know, to figure out what sort of life you want to lead in the future.
As if studying for exams was tedious enough, right? At least you’ll get a shiny copy of their new brochures.
Even if you haven’t decided on which country to end up in, that’s not a problem – you’ll find university reps from the usual suspects like Australia and the UK, but also from France and Switzerland.
Here are 4 – yes, four – education fairs that will be coming next month on the same day.
Education UK Exhibition 2017
Are you considering between studying in the UK or in Singapore with a partner institution? Then ask exhibitors who are not only from many education institutions in the UK, but also from education-related folks like IELTS, accommodation providers, and more.
