The Observer Yinan Wang, the 14-year-old Chinese boy who clinched a place at Oxford University last week, will be the last child prodigy to study there under reforms being considered by admissions tutors.
Despite an almost perennial flurry of headlines on children barely in their teens being offered places, the university is considering an unprecedented blanket rule on minimum ages for undergraduates.‘The admissions executive is in discussions around whether we should introduction a minimum age of 17 for undergraduates,’ confirmed Ruth Collier, a spokesperson for admissions to Oxford. ‘We have been pushed to consider it, not because of concerns about whether it is psychologically healthy for children to study here, but because of child protection laws which have come into play this year for the first time.’
Its pretting intersting when you see a person who is 14 acutally have a chance of going to oxford,! the top university in the whole world. well, probalby, some people said it was cambridge, but I think there are similar, cause they both are well known schools
