Alumni Pathways

Dolphin Graduate Pathways

Like all international schools, NIS students enter and leave at a variety of times during the academic school year, at a variety of ages and after varying lengths of stay. Regardless of their time at NIS, former students are all considered alumni, whether they officially graduated from NIS or not. 

NIS students continue to inquire, inspire and impact wherever they go! A majority of graduates continue their education in colleges or universities in the U.S., U.K. or Canada, and some at a growing number of universities in Japan that offer programs based in English. 

The NIS Class of 2023

On June 3, 2023, 23 students from the Class of 2023 will graduate from NIS, representing 9 nationalities (Australia, China, India, Korea, Switzerland, Thailand, UK, USA and Japan). The universities and colleges that accepted them are listed below. 

We wish the most recent group of Dolphins the best of luck as they pursue their dreams around the world!
