(Asking for Advice) Target to Non Target

Hello all,

I'm currently enrolled as an undergraduate in a target school in the UK but I'll need to leave at the end of my 1st year back to my home country since I need to be close to my family due to health reasons. I'm expecting a first.

Do I have any chance when applying to London IB jobs in the future, considering I was in a target school and managed to get a first in my first year? Visa not a problem

 

Not in the UK but rarely familiar with the process. The key in your situation is to get a spring week. If you can get a spring week your first year then your change in schools won’t matter as much. 

 

Not entirely true, if they convert the spring week into a summer internship its unlikely the BB/EB will let them delay when they do the summer (almost always needs to be penultimate summer so they can recruit for FT next year).

 

Yes but I will transfer, not start school from the first year again

 

This comment makes no sense. They’re transferring, not repeating a year of school. They will graduate at the same time they were planning to. 

 

Even if it is a school in other country? (good european school but not a target)
