OpenApply held its 19th admissions conference on November 9-10 at KIS International School in Bangkok. We were thrilled to welcome 77 attendees from 41 schools in 14 countries from all over the world.

The theme of the conference was Admissions, Adaptation and Automation, and the weekend was packed with inspiring sessions led by Admissions, Marketing and Advancement Professionals, alongside practical workshops from the OpenApply team. As with all OpenApply conferences, our aim was to craft an engaging and collaborative event that encourages reflection and leads to meaningful dialogue between participants.

Bringing together the international and independent school admissions community, the event facilitated an exploration of insightful strategies for crafting the family journey, rethinking norms, harnessing the power of community, aligning admissions with school identity, and lots more. There was an abundance of opportunities to learn, reflect, network and share best practices!
