University Destinations

Overall, there is great diversity, with students studying a range of university courses across 17 countries. The percentage of students studying in Hong Kong [23.7%] has increased significantly. The University of Hong Kong, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and The Chinese University of Hong Kong had three of the four largest cohorts of students from ESF schools. However, the United Kingdom remained the most popular destination, with 38.5% of our students going on to study there at universities such as University of Cambridge and University College London. 18.6% of students went on to study at a US university; popular choices included  University of California, Berkeley and Los Angeles, and Northeastern University. Canadian universities are less popular this year, with the University of British Columbia and University of Toronto the most popular choices.
