Diverse student body
Students from over 70 different nationalities live, learn, and thrive together at MUWCI. The community embraces and celebrates cultural, socioeconomic, and ideological diversity, which is at the core of MUWCI’s identity, cultivating respect and empathy among students from all backgrounds.
Experiential learning weeks
This is one of the most special aspects of studying at MUWCI. Students spend two weeks travelling through India to learn about diversity, differing perspectives, local culture, and societal issues. It is an important step in facing challenges, building resilience, and thinking deeply about social change.
Triveni and Community Engagement
MUWCI extends the CAS requirements of a typical IB programme with “Triveni”, to push students to engage with the world outside and emphasises responsibility and leadership through service, preparing students to address real-world challenges and contribute meaningfully to society.
Nature-based learning
MUWCI’s setting on a natural, forested hilltop promotes a deep respect for the environment and sustainability, instilling in students a love for the outdoors and an awareness of ecological stewardship.
Community and lifelong bonds
The bonds students form at MUWCI with peers, alumni, and faculty are lasting, creating a global network of individuals united by shared values and mutual support.
Financial support
As a UWC college, MUWCI is committed to drawing deserving students from different socio-economic and cultural backgrounds and ensuring that they have a chance to experience a UWC education. Over 80% of our students receive financial support.
