How to Choose a University That’s Right for You – A GV Alumni’s Story

Choosing the right university isn’t just about rankings—it’s about support, experience, and personal growth. Just ask Opal, Class of 2023, now studying Medicine at the Srinakharinwirot University – University of Nottingham Joint Medical Programme, one of Thailand’s most respected medical pathways.

Looking back, Opal credits much of her success to the support she received at St. Andrews Green Valley. From personalised university counselling and hands-on IBDP guidance to tailored prep for medicine applicants—including practice interviews and portfolio support—Opal felt empowered every step of the way.

“I always loved Biology,” she says, “and GV gave me the space to explore that passion through lessons, charity work, and real-world experiences. The community here is so supportive—you can talk to any teacher and they’ll truly listen.”

From the classroom to patient care, Opal’s journey proves that when schools go beyond academics, students go beyond expectations.
