Oxford only needs 3.

Is she fluent (or close) in any language(s) other than English?

My sister got her PhD at Glasgow University in Scotland. It was a while ago and much different than undergrad but she loved it.

All in Japan / check them out

Those are great universities in Japan. I don't think they convey much value outside of Japan, though.

If interested in UK schools, be sure to hit the APs. You'll need five 5s for oxford or Cambridge.

Trinity, Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial, then any of the Russel Group.

Edinburgh. My dc graduated a few years ago. It was a great experience all around.

What does she want to study?

Stick with UK schools. Would depend on major but would go for the top tier schools such as Oxford/Cambridge, St Andrews, Edinburgh, LSE and Imperial if interested in STEM.

Le Sorbonne
Padua
Bologna

Why not Asia?

NUS is really strong

Hoping to get some advice for my niece. She wants to go abroad for her college experience and is looking at Canada and Europe. She is a high stats applicant (maybe T-20 caliber) and applying in the fall. Any suggestions? So far she has looked at UofT, McGill, Oxford/Cambridge, and St. Andrew's.
