Let's be a part of something amazing.

What is The Silk Road?

The melting pot of cultural values in the eyes of international school students.

The Silk Road, although known as the famous trade road predominantly owned by China to amplify their trade to Romanina, it is also a symbolic flowing river of cultures and cultural values from the two halves of the world. Transcending this scope, our culture club (established by 16 and 17 international school students from Vietnam) is aspired to be a creative and welcoming space where cultures from regions that have been lacking the opportunity for representation are explored and embraced. Additionally, we do an equal need to emphasize the contemporary cultural issues that are socially relevant with thoroughly researched and authentic discussion, fundamentally based on our perspective.

FAQs

How long will this project last?

This project will officially start in April and end at the end of this year.

But you won't be working every month, don't worry.

The first month before the official start will be spent on training and clarifying expectations of the members
In months that the workload is very tense (end of term exams, IAs due, university application deadlines) our project can be "frozen" so members can focus on their academic rigor instead

How can I know if I'd been admitted or declined?

We'll be contacting applicants via email. The results will hopefully be out within a week.
