0:00 - Intro
1:23 - 1) You don't like change
3:00 - Why I deleted the other video
3:50 - 2) You are an introvert
4:55 - 3) You just want to study
6:10 - 4) You don't like the stress
7:59 - 5) You are not interested in other cultures
9:00 - Conclusion
Guys, here everything changes, here we have introverts, extroverts, if you just want to study you can just not socialize much, being different is ok here, without stress and going out of your comfort zone you will never achieve something, saying that you should stay at your home is not the best advice, apply and see how it goes, never fear anything.
Did you go to UWC?
@@Melona1279 good question.
i completely agree with this! don't let it stop you & see it as a growth opportunity

Thanks ☺️
I got accepted!!
Congratsss!!! Can you tell us more about it?
yeah agree with the previous person! It would be great if you shared more details ab it
How long did you wait before you got your acceptance letter?
I applied today 👀
OMG CONGRATS 💗
i have social anxiety, the group activity was kinda good and i made some friends, but the interview was a nightmare. i finished it with tears and a panick attack, i felt so bad after that bcs i was eventually rejected, still hurts bsc i think i could do it better://
i think im gonna apply this year too, will be the third time lol
How can you apply three times you can only apply lf you are a sophomore or junior?
@@kemancalmayacalisiyorum hi, im a 05 liner, so i applied since 2020 but i know in some committees could be different
Hey! If you don't mind me asking, what actually happens in the group activity?
@@myownchaos9144 hi, i know it's different for every committee but in mine, we did little games about social problems, and we did a politic debate about a peruvian case at that moment, we had mini interviews, they asked me about my intention to go to uwc, my goals and things like that. hope this helps and good luck
@@maskedddddlol Thank you so much!
Thank you dasha for sharing this, it is quite helpful, because you are telling us your real experience without any bias ❤
This is definitely a video to watch for potential applicants.
The title should be: Do not go to UWC if this is you
Hey thank you so much for your comment! I really value the contribution & modified the name to make it better :)
I applied, made it through the written application and interview. The group activity wasn't so good for me.
I think I messed up a little here and there. Blame ocd and other stuff for that.
Sometime ago, I got rejected :/
Still on the waiting list so like, idk one last hope
I think the reason I wasn't able to get in was that i kinda struggle with social interaction. I think it was visible in the group activity. I was trying hard not to show it but eh
I think that you will eventually make it. Don't let a condition dictate what you are able to do. I am also looking forward to apply for it, so lets hope we can both be accepted.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m sure many people can relate and will find your comment helpful. Nevertheless, I’m sure you’ll have a lot of great opportunities ahead of you! Good luck ❤️
there's a group activity???
I applied UWCSEA, there isn't this part of the application!
@@zihanwei1428 I applied via MUWCI and the 3rd(final) stage of the selection process was a group activity
might be different for you ig
@@xtremekraken oh yeah, I applied during Covid, so the group activity was cancelled, but, UWC is overall pretty good! I hope you get accepted!
Thanks so much for that!! I was about to send my application today, but now I'm kind of hesitant. I might wait 'till I graduate highschool and go there for college, when I'll know my needs a bit better. So glad I found this video
To address your points:
1) Teachers don’t change regularly. Maybe they did at your UWC during their year but when I was 14 years old at Waterford in 2004 I had a maths teacher called Mr King. He is the deputy vice principal of Waterford today. If I go back to my UWC tomorrow I’ll recognise 50% of the faces.
2) if you’re an introvert then UWC might be the best place because the folks there will understand and accept your personality traits and (most importantly accommodate themselves to make you more comfortable)
3) Maybe your year had academically weak folks but my year had people that went to some of the best colleges in the world and are today leaders in their chosen fields.
4) Not liking stress?? Please, grow up.
5) The only valid point you’ve made in this video.
Is it free, especially visa's price
appreciate your comment! i think 1&3 for sure depend on UWC, and i agree with 2, although as an introvert myself coming into UWC i didn't feel a lot of such support. but again, i totally agree that this might be a school-specific or my experience only.
not sure what you mean about stress. i saw how many people struggled with academics & overall felt overwhelmed which affected their mental health to the worse. not everyone is ready for that kind of pressure and not everyone needs it. i think it is an important warning.
Well on your first point, I think she meant something different. Like by change you could come up with many points such as the change of your friend group, the ppl you spend your time most etc.
I checked the video again, its abt what u said lol, but yeah a change in lifestyle comes nevertheless
Сижу и радуюсь тому, что понимаю речь на английском... Далее следует самому начать внятно изъясняться>:)
Спасибо за видео, для кого-то оно действительно может быть полезным))
Крылышки передают привет, хе-хе
Wow nice evidence-based roast! Love it!
I'm interested in other cultures but just this. I'm an introvert, like changes but not stress and don't like peaple actually
How do you get in? I’ve checked their website and I don’t really understand it well
Hey where re u right now? Actually i watched ur video yesterday 🌚
I liked ur video ❤😊
UWC was great for me -
Went to rcn Norway and graduated in 2022 - feel free to ask if you have questions!
Hey, thinking of applying what do you think is the best route? GSP or through the National committee??
@@mildredmavindu5794 It depends. Applying through the GSP has its pros and cons. Applying through the GSP you are not considered for financial support (thus, you’d need to have healthy parents who can pay the school tuition), however, applying through the GSP will allow you to have a larger say in the specific school that you are going to (you’ll be provided a few school you can personally choose from). Now, applying through a national commitee has the great benefit that it will provide you with financial support, however, when applying to a national commitee you won’t have the same day in what school you are going to - You can often request but it ultimately depends on 1. The scholarships available for the national commitee (let’s say you are American applying through the American national commitee then you would but most likely to go to the US UWC). 2. Your national commitee might consider your school request but will also look at you as a person and put you in the school they believe is the best fit for you - and isn’t a bad thing - I originally requested to go to Canada but was send to RCN Norway, which I ended up loving a lot! All UWC schools have their own great qualities.
@@almagashi9261 Which activity are you referring to?
hey what are the main activities you guys usually have over there?
Hi, I would like to ask if it was too challenging to manage everything like academics, extracurriculars and personal life together at UWC?
Love this video, I graduated years back adn I think this is still valid!
I really love to have experiences and know about other cultures.
But I heard that IB isn't that much useful for studying medical which I wanna study after school. Is it true? What's your idea?!
Many of my friends are now studying medicine in university, and they took Biology and Chemestry in IB, which I think was very helpful. I belive you could do anything after UWC, there isn't any division and etc
Oh
Thanks for answering me💛
And for intering uwc what abilities did you had?
@Sana Daliriyan do you mean like skills? I’m guessing social and soft skills are important as well showing your interest outside of academics
@@dashakhamaza2250
You right
Thanks a lot 🧡
HOW CAN WE CHOOSE OUR SUBJECTS IN UWC? CAN YOU GUIDE ME?
hey, yeah, you can choose your subjects. UWC is IB dimploma program, and it varies by year and school which subjects are offered when you get there
I'm too young yet to apply, but I want to try out next year. I have a question, do I have to have good grades to get in?
I applied this year and as I understand you don’t need the best grades but you still need decent ones.
Hope that helps.
@@juliuskrucovroos1020 thank you, let me know whether you got accepted or not :) I wish you the best of luck!
Hey! “Good” grades that show that you will be able to manage IB (UWC academic curriculum) should suffice! I didn’t have straight A-s and I’m sure you don’t need a perfect transcript too.
@@julijuli244 i got accepted to MUWCI
@@juliuskrucovroos1020 congratulations! That's so cool :)
Do you have to write normal tests througout the year in every subject?
Im in uwcm im learning there its very cool and fun
Thus might only be for secondary though
Is sat or ilets is required to apply
What do u use for editing and filming
IMovie for editing, and filming on my phone :)
Wanna ask what if i finished my 2 years i can continue college there ? Because im planing i alread applied anf i am planing when i finish my 2 years then i want to continue my college i uwc .what do you think i can continue my college there after my 2years?
If you mean that you’ve already done IB, I’m not sure. It depends on your age at the time of application!
После окончания uwc у вас есть возможность поступить в университет?
👍🏻 yes
Where do you live when you are there
Do you see princess leonor there?
Haha, depends on UWC
She is at UWC Atlantic in Wales, not UWC Dilijian in Armenia.
Можно ли подавать заявку после 11 класса?
I don't think so, BUT it depends on your age at the time of application. i suggest to check UWC website for that!
@@dashakhamaza2250 Thank you 😊
Put a translation please
مقبولة و مسافرة يا رب
السلام عليكم هل قمتي بمرحلة الانشطه ؟؟ اتمنى ان تشاركية معي بعض المعلومات إذا قمتي بها
6) you dont have enough money lol (speaking from experience and a stingy national committee)
But people saying they are helping us with Money?
@@loay7270 nope, i was one of the top applicants from the country, they failed to give me any scholarship, only gave it to those who were *extremely* under-priveledged. i wasn't capable of paying either. but it was a pr game lmfao. 2 ppl were from underprivileged (like very under-priveledged) background, the rest 13-14 were rich asf. the dynamic is crazyyyyy
You are very cool 😘
