Students will reside in one of Cambridge University’s most iconic colleges, including Fitzwilliam College, Sidney Sussex College, and Corpus Christi College. Accommodation will be assigned based on room availability and the student’s age group.

Tuition

Learn the Oxford way with tutorial-style teaching. Your expert tutor will foster self-directed learning and critical thinking through interactive seminars in small groups (no bigger than 8). During your course, you will complete two pieces of independent work (essays or problem sheets), which your tutor will then evaluate in either a 1:1 or 2:1 tutorial. Tutorials will provide you with the opportunity to discuss your work and feedback with your tutor and learn new perspectives from your classmates. On completion of the course, you'll receive a certificate and letter of recommendation from your tutor.
