About
project
UWC Dilijan is an international boarding school for students aged 16 to 19. It is the first UWC College in the post-Soviet space. Today, UWC includes 18 educational institutions around the world. The mission of the movement is "to make education a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future”. Students over 80 countries, including Russia, attend UWC Dilijan. The teaching is conducted in English in accordance with the two-year International Baccalaureate program (IB Diploma Programme).
Socially oriented programs are an integral part of education. Thanks to them, students are able to interact with locals, particularly children and young people, learn about and contribute to the resolution of local problems.
Almost all students receive need-based scholarships, which either fully or partially cover the cost of education and living expenses. The scholarship system allows for real geographic, cultural and social diversity, and due to this, kids see each other as human beings rather than their status and background.
