GEMS students are accepted by some of the world’s most prestigious universities

In the last four years, GEMS Education has enjoyed some of the best university acceptance rates of any international school groups. Our students have been accepted into 1050 universities in 53 countries. We’re proud to say that includes 66 of the world’s top 100 universities.

GEMS Wellington Academy - Al Khail and its dedicated staff body play a significant role in supporting students throughout its post-16 curriculum across subjects that complement their academic and personal strengths. Our Careers and University Guidance Counsellor works with all students to ensure the final steps of secondary education are a smooth transition for all students.

We also support students with their course choices, personal statements and mock interview preparation as well as introducing them to a range of external partners and universities to help make their decisions.

I could not be prouder of the exceptional results our students have achieved. I know they will leave the Academy with a sense of accomplishment, knowing they have done their very best."
