Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, over 80% of national committee selected UWC students
receive a scholarship. This support allows UWC to continue to select students based on their
potential and merit regardless of their background, race, gender or ability to pay. Our students
enter as idealists and graduate equipped to succeed and create lasting, positive change in the
world.
Most UWC national committees across the globe are run by volunteers. This volunteer network
ensures that UWC’s unique selection process is possible. With selection activities taking place
in over 150 countries and territories, we actively look for promising young students, many of
whom would otherwise never dream of the opportunity that a UWC education can provide.
