CIS MIDDLE EAST INSTITUTE ON INTERNATIONAL ADMISSION & GUIDANCE

in collaboration with the British Schools in the Middle East (BSME)

Date: 10–11 March 2023
Time: 08:00–18:00 Gulf Standard Time (GST)
Location: New York University, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates

Two days packed with regionally focused workshops and small group discussions on the latest university admissions topics and trends

You’ll experience a dynamic and intimate atmosphere where guidance counsellors and university admissions professionals expand their networks as they support and learn with each other.

The schedule maximises networking opportunities for counsellors to explore the many exciting worldwide study prospects for their students, guided by the latest admissions information.

We plan the event in collaboration with the British Schools of the Middle East (BSME).

The CIS Middle East Institute was informative, professional, fun, enlightening, and so worthwhile. I truly look forward to future events like this.
