The recruitment process lasts for two days and is conducted over the course of a single weekend. Our recruitment (assessment) weekends include: 1. University lectures in English supplemented with tests to check the students’ abilities to learn and understand abstract content, analytical thinking, ability to draw conclusions, and ability to compare data. 2. English Language competence testing. 3. Mathematics test. 4. Individual meetings with subject teachers: we check not only a student’s knowledge but also, more importantly, their predisposition. 5. Group tasks, in which we check soft skills and social abilities. This assessment process was created with the aim of uncovering the academic knowledge and talents held by each individual student. In doing so, we can better understand how these may be enriched, developed, and employed in propelling students along the educational pathway to which they are most suited. At its conclusion, the student and parents receive a full report that is discussed at an individual meeting with the Admissions team. The report is also a basis for our admission decision. During the COVID-19 pandemic, we conduct online recruitment weekends.
