sept. 2, 2011 hs faculty address, theodoros filaretos, vP secondary education,
noted that of the students who were accepted by Greek institutions of higher edu -
cation, 85% were accepted at Greek state universities and only 15% by teI’s
(the three-year technical institutes). of these, 6 students enrolled in Greek medical
schools, 2 will study pharmacy, 39 engineering, 16 law, and 15 economics.
President Giesecke sums up: “Adding these results to the placement of IB graduates
at both US and other European Universities, the aggregate picture makes
Anatolia justifiably proud. Overall, 33 Anatolia High School graduates have
elected to enroll in the US for fall 2011. Two Anatolia IB students have enrolled
at Harvard; others have chosen to enroll at MIT, University of Chicago, Smith
College, Tufts University, Reed College, and many others. In addition, there were
37 who elected to attend university in the UK...(including) Imperial College
London, University College London, King’s College London, the University of
Edinburgh, and City University London. Two IB students were admitted to medical
schools in the UK (Glasgow, East Anglia). This year’s IB acceptances span many
other EU countries, notably France (Université de Montpellier), Hungary (Semmelweis
Medical School), Italy (Bocconi University), Switzerland (University of
Geneva), and Austria (University of Innsbruck).” Anatolia College News Briefs
