How does it work?
GlobalCampus is an online community: students and institutions can create a profile and connect.
Student profiles work like CVs. Students can indicate the schools they have attended, their personal achievements, their aspirations and their preferred destinations to study. They can also add sample works and videos to present themselves and their interests.
University profiles are generated directly by a university’s community - staff, faculty, current students and alumni. They feature both subjective information, like articles and presentation videos, and objective information, like admission requirements and course synopses.
On GlobalCampus students can express their talent to receive offers from universities around the world, while universities can communicate their best assets to tudents in any country.
