He said, “I honestly felt relieved when I got the grades and conditions I needed. It’s been a long process but seeing the email from New College confirming my place was incredible.”

Charlotte, who was Captain of Girls Rugby and Scottish U18 Rugby player whilst at Strathallan, has been recruited for Harvard’s Women’s Rugby Team.
