Study in Switzerland and around the world

With International A Levels, graduates of Academia Matura have a wide range of opportunities open to them – both in Switzerland and abroad. International A Levels are the most widely established school-leaving qualification worldwide and enjoy an excellent international reputation. They open the door to universities, universities of applied sciences and specialised higher education institutions.

The path to university starts early

Success at university often depends on making the right choices at the right time. That is why academic guidance at Academia Matura does not begin at the end of the programme, but already when students choose their subjects.

Our academic leadership team supports students from the very beginning – in a structured, personal and individual way, always with their future degree plans or career goals in mind.

Choosing the right subjects for your dream degree

Some universities and degree programmes have specific entry requirements. Our academic leadership team supports students in choosing the right International A Level subjects so that they are well prepared for their chosen path, for example in areas such as:

  • Medicine and Health Sciences
  • Business and management
  • Engineering and the Natural Sciences
  • Social Sciences and Humanities
  • Art, Design or Music

This creates a clear and realistic educational path without unnecessary detours.

Where our graduates go on to study

Zurich, Basel, Bern, Tokyo, London or San Diego – our alumni study at universities in all of these cities and many more.

Studying in Switzerland

International A Levels can open the door to universities and universities of applied sciences in Switzerland.

We are happy to advise students and families on entry requirements, recognition and individual opportunities, and to show which routes are both realistic and worthwhile.

Studying abroad

Many of our students are interested in studying abroad, for example in:

  • the United Kingdom
  • the United States
  • Europe
  • Australia or Canada

Thanks to the international recognition of A Levels, the transition into foreign higher education systems can be planned clearly and confidently.

Support with applications and university enrolment

Our Careers Advisors support students in choosing suitable universities and explain the relevant entry requirements and application processes. Beyond advice, we also offer practical support throughout the process.

We help with, among other things:

  • choosing suitable universities
  • preparing application documents
  • applying to university
  • planning the next steps in good time

This helps students stay on top of everything – and gives parents peace of mind that nothing is overlooked.

More than a qualification: guidance and perspective

After the Matura, a new chapter begins. Academia Matura sees itself as a trusted partner – not only until the final exams, but right through to the next big step.

Career and University Fairs

Our sister schools, Academia International School in Basel, Winterthur and Zurich, organise Career and University Fairs once or twice a year, giving students the opportunity to connect with universities from around the world. Students from Academia Matura are warmly invited to attend as well.
