Year 13 pupil Neev G, currently studying at The Leys, has accepted an offer to study at Brown University from September 2024.
Brown is a leading research university based in Rhode Island, USA, a member of the prestigious Ivy League and one of the top ranked universities in the world. Admission to US colleges is a highly holistic process and Neev has been working towards this moment for the last two years. His application comprised essays on a wide range of academic and wider-curricular topics along with interviews and the submission of recorded speeches.
Neev, who is currently studying A Levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics and History, commented: “It feels really good to have been offered a place at Brown. I am particularly keen on the open curriculum they offer as I am still undecided on which path to pursue in the future. I am really grateful for the help of Dr Black who has guided me through the application process and has been really supportive.”
Dr Black, the new International University Coordinator at The Leys, added “I’m delighted for Neev. His dedication, hard work and huge potential have been rightly recognised with this very exciting opportunity.”
