WHY CAMREIDGE

Why has GIS selected Cambridge Curriculum?

Cambridge programmes prepare students for life – helping them to develop an informed curiosity and lasting passion for learning.

Cambridge helps students become confident, responsible, reflective, innovative and engaged. Ready to tackle the demands of tomorrow’s world, capable of shaping a better world for the future.

Success in Cambridge qualifications gives students admission to the world’s best universities – in the US, the UK, Australia, Canada, Germany and beyond. 

Cambridge qualifications are accepted and valued by universities around the world, including MIT, Harvard and Cambridge. 

They are recognised as qualifications that prepare and equip students with the skills they need to succeed both at university and beyond. Universities say that they value the independent research and critical thinking skills, as well as the deep subject knowledge that our qualifications bring. 

Admission to North American institutions

Leading US and Canadian universities require Cambridge International AS and A Levels, but some US and Canadian colleges and universities will accept learners with five Cambridge IGCSEs at grade C or above. Check the admissions policy of individual institutions for more information.

Admission to UK institutions

In the UK, Cambridge IGCSE is accepted as equivalent to the GCSE. 

When applying to UK universities, it is essential that students can communicate effectively in English and are able to do so in an academic environment. Cambridge IGCSE English Language qualifications are recognised by UK universities as evidence of English language competency for university study.
