UWC Dilijan
Life at UWC Dilijan is one like no other. By merely attending this school, you can explore the entire world. Every conversation is a learning opportunity, and not one day goes by without me having learnt something new! Before coming here, I used to read about events happening in other countries and other cultures, but actually hearing about them from someone who has personally experienced what I used to simply read about, gives you a whole new dimension of understanding.
While this is a common factor that all the UWCs share, I feel that our school, being situated in Dilijan, enhances this effect among the student body. Since Dilijan only has a population of 16,600 people, it is easy to feel immersed in the community, but due to the communication barrier between the students and the locals, we still very much depend on each other. Even when you’re out and about in Dilijan, it is rare that you’ll be completely alone and won’t accidentally cross paths with another member of the school. This is the beauty of UWC Dilijan. Once you enter, it becomes your entire world and gives you a truly unique and unforgettable two-year experience.
Apart from being such an exciting place because of its diversity, UWC Dilijan is much more than that. Being here, it feels like the school is structured to be ideal for every type of student. From the mind-blowing facilities to the supportive staff, UWC Dilijan comes quite close to being the perfect boarding school. However, due to the fact that we are all doing the IB, it is sometimes easy to forget all the positives of this place and let the stress that comes with the IB consume you.
Although, the amazing regional evenings, and electrifying events like skiing, explore Armenia trips, and DiliMUN sure do make you feel better!
