UWC Dilijan in Armenia included in Forbes’ top five schools
The UWC Dilijan was listed among Forbes’ compilation of top five schools created with the assistance of Russian billionaires.
Founded by Ruben Vardanyan and his wife Veronika Zonabend, the college is the 14th member of the UWC (United World Colleges) movement, one of seventeen colleges around the world. The college matriculated its first 96 IB1 students in September 2014.
Situated in a city of the same name in Armenia’s north, UWC Dilijan is a boarding school for talented children from around the world, Forbes says.
“After the entrance exams, the selection committee may send a student to study in another country that also hosts such a school from the same network. “198 students from a total of 72 countries currently study at the school in Armenia,” Forbes said.
