Universities
Boarding schools in the British Isles are home to thousands of international students from around the world with globally-minded families.
This sector is ripe for international universities looking to diversify their student populations.
As a former boarding school teacher and now working with students and counsellors at schools across the UK, founder David Hawkins is deeply embedded in this sector.
The University Guys run a number of small-group recruitment tours to UK boarding schools each year as well as more targeted events to particular locations or for university consortia.
We can also provide bespoke itineraries targeting particular regions or schools based on your institution’s needs and profile.
