Ashbourne is an A level and GCSE college located in central London. By offering a wide range of subjects (about 30 subjects to choose from), Ashbourne aims to place all of its A level students at one of the leading UK universities. Some Vietnamese Ashbourne graduates have gained scholarships to read university degree courses at Oxford, Cambridge, LSE (London School of Economics) and Cornell (USA).
Ashbourne is delighted to announce that they are to award scholarships of up to 50% tuition fees, for 2-year A level or GCSE courses, starting in September 2010 and 18 month A level courses starting in January 2010, and 1-year A level courses starting in September 2010 for mature students. However, note that the total expenditure for the course including living costs, even if a student receives the maximum scholarship worth a 50% reduction on published term fees, would still exceed £10,000 per annum.
All Vietnamese high school students who are; hard-working, friendly, helpful, motivated, ambitious, confident, excellent communicators in English, are invited to attend the scholarship test.
