The same year, students of our Schools were admitted to the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki faculties with high marks, with Alexandros Karentzos admitting to Medical School, Vasiliki Kapsali admitting to Law School, and Charis Karasiotos admitting to Engineering School. Since then every year, the Schools have been opening up pathways both in Greece and abroad. Besides, education is not a one-way street! Almost 95% of our students succeed in admitting to schools of high demand, while a large percentage of students have the chance to study in the best universities in the world without an IB diploma, following the \u201cSTUDIES ABROAD\u201d preparatory program.<\/p><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                                <div class=\"swiper-slide history-swiper-slide\" style=\"z-index: 10!important;\">\n                    <img src='https:\/\/mandoulides.edu.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/1st-Place-World-Basketball-Championship-Israel-19991.jpg' \/>\n                    <div class=\"history_card_info\" data-swiper-parallax-duration=\"500\" data-swiper-parallax-opacity=\"0\">\n                                                <a href=\"https:\/\/mandoulides.edu.gr\/athlitismos\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\" >\n                            <div data-swiper-parallax-y=\"-32\" data-swiper-parallax-duration=\"500\" data-swiper-parallax-opacity=\"0\" class=\"h1\">1999<\/div>\n                        <\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div data-swiper-parallax-y=\"-32\" data-swiper-parallax-duration=\"500\" data-swiper-parallax-opacity=\"0\" class=\"h4\">1st place in World Schools Championship Basketball<\/div>\n                        <div data-swiper-parallax-y=\"-32\" data-swiper-parallax-duration=\"500\" data-swiper-parallax-opacity=\"0\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><p>Sports is also one of Evangelos Mantoulidis\u2019 main objectives.
