“These 36 honourees represent the very best of our GEMS family, and I could not be prouder of their success. For those who meet the criteria, we are delighted to support their applications for the UAE’s Golden Visa, subject to approval, as a recognition of their exceptional talent and potential.”
Building on Mr Varkey’s remarks, Dino Varkey, Group Chief Executive Officer of GEMS Education, highlighted how these achievements reflect the organisation’s broader purpose and vision.

In just the past four years, GEMS graduates have earned over 3,500 offers from the world’s Top 100 universities including more than 2,200 at elite Russell Group institutions, nearly 2,000 at Top 50 global universities, and many coveted places at Ivy League schools.
