Early University Offers for the Class of 2026
As the university application season continues to unfold, our Class of 2026 has already delivered a series of exciting early outcomes. To date, they have received a total of 71 offers from leading universities around the world, including:
Five offers from the UK G5 universities, comprising one offer from Imperial College London (QS World University Rankings: 2nd) and four offers from University College London (QS: 9th);
More than half of the Class of 2026 have secured offers from universities ranked within the QS World Top 20;
Of all offers received so far, over 70% are from universities ranked within the QS World Top 50.
According to the 2026 QS World University Rankings, only five universities in China are ranked within the world's top 50: Peking University (14th), Tsinghua University (17th), Fudan University (30th), Shanghai Jiao Tong University (47th) and Zhejiang University (49th). Remarkably, during this early application phase alone, more than half of our graduating pupils have already been admitted to world-class universities on par with Peking University and Tsinghua University. These achievements not only highlight our pupils' strong all-round capabilities, but also instil confidence and optimism as the application journey continues, with further good news expected in the months ahead.
One particularly significant milestone from this application cycle deserves special recognition: our school has received its first-ever offer from Imperial College London (QS World Ranking: 2nd). This breakthrough marks another major step forward in the university placement achievements of Wellington College Education (China) - Hangzhou, and reflects the strong alignment between our academic programme and the rigorous selection standards of the world's leading universities.
We celebrate every effort made and extend our sincere gratitude for every form of support.
These early application results represent a moment worth celebrating—but they are only the beginning. Standing at this new starting point, we look forward with great anticipation to more positive outcomes, and to seeing the Class of 2026 continue to write their own outstanding chapter in the months ahead.
Together, let us witness every step they take towards the world.
