In those memorable two weeks, I not only acquired a wealth of knowledge but also forged lasting friendships with peers from diverse corners of the globe. We continue to connect and share insights regularly. I can't wait to return next year.”

  • “Just loved the life at Oxford, the tutors were excellent and excelled in their fields, the activities we participated in were some I was learning for the first time and the friends I made from all around the world were one of the kindest people I met and I’m still in touch with all of them even though it’s been two years now. The memories I made there were definitely worth a lifetime. Still look back and feel nostalgic at times.”

The environment around Oxford University fosters a love of learning and an inquisitiveness that he had not demonstrated before, and he was really in his element. He loved being with his new-found friends, thoroughly enjoyed the lessons and masterclasses, and took part in all of the activities with great enthusiasm. He really made the most of his time there, and thanks to the team at OSA, he came home so much more focused, driven, and confident that he has made the right choice of career path. Thanks to Lavinia, Stephanie, and Computer Science tutor Daniel for an outstandingly memorable two weeks!”

I truly recommend Oxford Scholastica Academy to all the parents who are looking for an amazing school for their kids.”

  • “The Oxford Scholistica LawCon 2020 was a phenomenal experience. Each session offered something completely different and really helped build a full, in depth picture of my potential employment field. The online experience is smooth with each speaker being able to fully utilise the capabilities presented by online seminars. I fully recommend this opportunity it is such a personal and involved experience that can be a gateway to a whole new group of people”

  • “I brought my two children aged 16 and 13 to participate in the summer program 2016 . The staff were very welcoming and showed them their rooms and helped them get settled. At the reception I met some of the staff and teachers who would look after them for the next two weeks. The program is very well organised, and from the time I dropped them off to the time I picked them up they were always very well looked after.They had their own private rooms with a shower and bathroom. They learned to become more independent by doing their own laundry, choosing where they wanted to have lunch (and managing their money) and choosing some of the activities they wanted to do (my son preferred Shakespeare to shopping). They got to know Oxford very well and when I went to pick them up they gave me a tour of the center of Oxford. They had several excursions to London and enjoyed the sights with the friends they had made during their stay.As for the academic program, they loved their teachers and the course showed them what it would be like to study that particular subject later at university. They had some work to do on their own and sometimes had to write reports. Just by being in Oxford they got a feel of how it is to study in one of the most famous Universities in the world. This has motivated them to study harder to get the good grades needed to get in ( we can see how motivated they are and how hard they are working this academic year).They enjoyed their evening activities with their new friends.They have kept in touch with their new friends and talk to each other via internet.When I went to pick them up at the end of the two week program, they were both very sad saying goodbye to every one and my son said to me "thank you dad for the best summer of my life"”

  • “I would like to extend my sincerest appreciation and gratitude for the amazing two weeks that my daughter spent at Oxford Scholastica Academy. The memories she made will undoubtedly have a lasting impact on her personal and professional growth and development. I wholeheartedly recommend Oxford Scholastica Academy to any parent seeking a nurturing, engaging, and unforgettable summer school for their child.I also want to acknowledge the tireless efforts of Stephanie, Lavinia and the whole team. Thank you for your dedication in providing exceptional summer school experience to your students.Thank you again for giving Sirine a wonderful experience full of learning and acquiring new set of knowledge and skills.”

  • “I absolutely loved my Oxford Scholastica experience! I went to their debate course over a year ago and just completed a law course today! I definitely recommend it to anyone who either knows what they're doing and want better preparation. or even students who have no idea who they want to be when they grow up! I was both at some point and Oxford Scholastica filled that gap for me. Thank you so much for this amazing opportunity!!”

  • “My daughter's time at OS was outstanding and memorable. Admin was seamless and the care for the children and young people exemplary. She was able to take part in activities she would never have done otherwise. She made an international network of friends who still remain in contact with one another. The input from her tutor not only helped define and clarify her future goals; but also helped to secure unconditional offers at 3 top flight universities.For her - and for us as a family - this was one of those experiences which define the next step and which we will all remember for the rest of our lives.”

  • “My son had a very positive experience at camp! He loved the program! He learned a lot and made some great friends. The activities and excursions were an added bonus! He enjoyed having independence. Ms. Stephanie was easy to get in touch with and everything was super organized. We will be back!”

  • “I loved LawCon 2020! The wide range of speakers were all amazing and I feel I gained lots of knowledge from them, especially regarding the law application process and the different fields of law. The conferences, even though they were online, managed to be very engaging and all of my questions and contributions were listened to and responded to. Also I especially liked how it was hosted by two such inspiring women, Tuscany and Lavinia. Thank you!”

  • “My son took the literature course and had so much fun with it. Rooms facilities were clean and kids were allowed to walk along the streets of Oxford and deal with people and buying their own meals every now and then. He has nothing but good memories and didn't want to leave,him nor his friends! I would definitely recommend it for any family who are checking it out now. Ps. A staff member met him in heathrow airport and returned him back helping him with the checking in. This was extremely helpful to me as it was the first time for my son to travel alone.”

  • “My kids had a great time!”

  • “The LawCon was one of the best experiences of my life because I got the chance to talk to amazing people and learn a lot of things that will really help me in my future endeavors.”

  • “OSA was definitely the best two weeks of, not only my summer, but also my life! I made so many great friends, got to meet so many different and interesting people and had the opportunity to explore my subject furthermore. After those two weeks of law classes I am quite sure I want to be a lawyer. The staff was also great. They were so nice, welcoming, funny and easy to talk to, which made the whole experience much better. If you choose to go to OSA, do not doubt for a second it is gonna be the best summer of your life! I miss it every day.”

  • “The two weeks that I spent in Oxford were amazing. It’s an experience that I will never forget. I really enjoyed the classes, they helped me choose what I want to do in college.”

  • “I loved the MedCon it taught me so much about life as a doctor and deepened my interest in medicine.”

  • “This academy was truly a *worth everything* experience.???? .I truly loved being a part of this ,as a student studying young doctors course :learning new and amazing things everyday..!! As well as a teenager learning how to live independently and yet perfectly???????? This was surely my bestest summer ever and I've got so much memories ,I'll cherish forever with???? And amazing friends I'll always miss.”

  • “Great course. My son really enjoyed the course . Right from booking till the last day of the course Lavinia was very helpful and clarified/solved everything. It was online course but everything was great.Many Thanks Lavania.”

  • “I had an amazing summer with OSA, absolutely loved where we were located (a walk away from central Oxford). The dorms we stayed in were fantastic, really clean and new with great amenities; the dorms were also on a really quiet street so it wasn't disruptive to our activities. The lecturer that taught me was so knowledgeable, she had a really quirky and unique personality that made class interesting! I heard from friends in other classes that their lecturers were also excellent. Also, the staff and organisational team was very accommodating to our needs and friendly to talk to! Overall, a great experience learning a new subject, living alone and abroad, and learning a new culture. Thank you OSA!”

  • “It was fun and nice”

  • “Provide clear information on various courses. Suitable price for the course studied. Respond to any inquiries promptly.”

  • “Two of kids already attended the program, one in computer science, the other in debate. Both had not only a great time but also actually learned something valuable they were able to leverage later on.”

  • “It’s was one of the best summers ever. I had loads of fun while doing activities, especially the game night with the other houses. The classes were amazing, and so was my tutor. It was easily one of the most memorable summers ever-just like Lavinia promised!”

  • “When my daughter Lora's service trip to Tanzania was cancelled, she had to quickly pivot and brainstorm other opportunities for a personally enriching summer. We found Oxford Scholastica and, boy, was she ever lucky!From day one, she was so inspired by the subject matter (psychology and neuroscience) and wonderful, enthusiastic tutor Alix! Taking the course allowed her to delve deeper into a topic she thought she was interested in pursuing as a major in college. Every day they explored different concepts and also had to submit a personal project toward the end.After the two weeks, she is convinced that this is her eventual path!Lavinia was a joy to work with and made the process incredibly easy and smooth. Lora and I both feel that we are now members of the "Oxford Scholastica" family and that will extend well beyond July 2020.”

  • “My son was very stimulated and enjoyed both the social and academic sides of his fortnight (debating skills) . The whole programme was well organised and devised. He made friends with great similar-minded teenagers and learnt a lot.”

  • “My daughter cane home from school excited about a summer school experience introduced by her teacher at the British School she attends. At first glance, we were skeptical about the OSA program. Going to UK from our home in Mongolia is not cheap, nor short. After a lot of research and very good interaction with the OSA leadership we were more confident and decided to try it out. We are so happy we did. Our daughter had a fantastic experience and since returning home, not only is she using what she learned in designing her future plans, she maintains contact with the group of multi cultural and multi ethnic friends she made at OSA. If you have a mature child and want them to challenge themselves not only academically but socially on a global scale, this is the program to consider. We highly recommend Oxford Scholastica Academy and are thrilled with the results. Thank you!”

  • “ A phenomenal experience for secondary/high school students, whether certain or uncertain of their professional futures. My 15 year old enrolled in Oxford Scholastica’s two-week online summer program in pursuit of her passion for Law. The class hit the ground running- engaged from the onset in exploring and discussing legal perspectives on current issues, with a global view.I was fortunate to listen in for a few minutes at a time, during some of the lessons. The points the tutor made were always thought provoking-perspectives my daughter hadn’t considered.  The progression of the curriculum, and each class, was brilliantly planned and executed, the topics current and relevant.  Thank you Lavinia for making the process so easy and welcoming!”

  • “An amazing cultural and educational experience! Definitely worth attending. OSA honestly defeated any doubts I had prior to travel! Aside from giving me a chance to learn about Medicine in a practical way that I would never had the chance to experience at my school, it also gave me new friends and increased my self-confidence. I never thought that I could build such a strong relationship with a group of people in only two weeks!”

  • “When my son came back from the two weeks with you he said is was the best experience he ever had! He recommended it to his younger brother and to his friends. While he was away and we were talking I could see that he was excited and truly happy!!! Thank you very much for such an amazing experience!”

  • “Oxford Scholastica Academy summer was very useful for my son, promptly they provided a certificate for the academic summer school also provided a recommendation letter which was really adding value and moreover provided academic support requested. Their deputy director Lavinia Abell was easily reachable and was readily helpful for all our queries.”

  • “It was the best experience of my life! It has almost been a year since I attended the camp and I am still in contact with the friends I made there. I highly recommend it to anyone that is thinking about taking a course! The counsellors are amazing and so are the kids. The rooms are very nice and the trips are amazing. 5/5 stars!”

  • “My daughter spent two weeks on the Creative Writing course this summer. Having made new friends from around the world, she returned home with lifelong memories and gained an abundance of techniques and skills to use in class when she returns to school. Her only complaint was that she would have liked the actual classes to have been longer. I would thoroughly recommend Oxford Scholastica Academy to anyone wishing to broaden their life skills and meet fellow peers from around the globe.”

  • “Great experience and highly qualified teachers!”

  • “What an amazing opportunity this was for my son!He will never forget his time at Oxford Scholastica.He is still in touch with the friends he made from all over the world. Truly a once in a life time experience!”

  • “It Is The Best Academy For All Teenagers”

  • “I had one of the best summers of life at the Oxford Scholastica Academy!”

  • “It was a very rewarding experience. The days were fun-packed and very productive, while also giving us time to explore and enjoy the city. It was so interesting to interact with people from such diverse backgrounds. The courses were all excellently designed and taught. I had the best time of my life- it was truly unforgettable.”

  • “What a fantastic experience for all of us. We were disappointed not to be able to send our adolescents children away this summer. We thought we were not going to be able to give them a solid educational summer experience but we were absolutely wrong. I feel very lucky to have found Oxford Scholastica.  My 3 children loved the classes and their tutors. They learned so much and we were always excited about their classes.  I was impressed with the professionalism of the program and the teachers. The content was also very thorough and well lined up. My husband and I enjoyed hearing what they learned about during dinner. They were so excited about what they learned and they couldn't stop sharing with us. I highly recommend this program. ”

  • “Oxford Scholastica Academy has been one of the most unique experiences of my life. Not only has it given me the chance to explore several future career possibilities, it also gave me a great opportunity to get to know some amazing people from all around the world. The idea of 'making friends for life' in only two weeks might leave you a bit sceptical, but I can promise you that after that short period of time, you'll find out that you've become best friends with some of the amazing people at OSA. I have absolutely no regrets about choosing this summer school and I hope that many more students get the chance to experience all the great things that OSA has to offer.”

  • “My daughter attended the Creative Writing Course in OSA in the summer of 2023. She had a great learning experience, specially the way the course was designed. The kids were looked after and my daughter also had a great learning experience in terms of cultural diversity.”

  • “Great programmes!”

  • “Oxford Scholastica provided our daughter with a superb British university experience. The content of the course, both academic and the recreational activities made for a very enjoyable 2 weeks in Oxford. The lecturers and staff were excellent. The environment safe. Laura came home positive about her experience, smiling and having learnt a lot !”

  • “My son had a wonderful summer of learning, independence and fun with Oxford Scholastica. He says it was the best summer of his life. He is a diabetic and had one small incident in the middle of the night which was swiftly taken care of by the wonderful nurse who was in residence. He came back full of confidence and with new public speaking skills. I highly recommend the program.”

  • “Over summer 2020, I participated in the Oxford Scholastica online course in International Relations and Leadership. I was glad to have an opportunity to study an academic discipline I was a passion about despite the pandemic. The subject tutorials and masterclasses were extremely engaging and the support I had from my tutors then helped me even after the course when I was writing my university application. I would strongly recommend the course to students who want a clear insight on what their major is all about as the course really provided me with an exciting 2-week journey that helped me decide my university course.”

  • “Oxford Scholastica is easily one the best things that I've had the pleasure to experience.I made so many friends from all over the world that I still talk to. and the courses are very educational and helpful and I never felt like it was a chore. I've improved my English skills (I'm not a native speaker) in every way. The instructors were very friendly and nice. I could write a book about the reasons I love Oxford Scholastica but all I can say is that the summer I spent with them was the most memorable summer of life.”

  • “It was so fun!”

  • “At first, I had some reservations in joining the programme because English is not my first language and I am not sure if I would blend in well with an international cohort. But after taking up the programme this summer, I come to realise that my worries was irrelevant because the coach was professional and experienced in the subject matter, his classes were very well planned, which progressively guided my understanding. My peers were friendly and keen to share their knowledge too. This year, I took up the Maths programme because that is the subject I am most confident in. Next year, I plan to explore other subject areas such as English writing to improve my English; and even Veterinarian (although I do not plan to become one, I think the experience will help me to appreciate other professions better when I grow up).I must say, as much as I would appreciate the cost of the programme to come down but given the high teaching quality and the small group coaching environment in addition to the well-planned logistics, the cost is deemed to be justified.”

  • “Will be helpful if school arrange the pick up service for international students”

  • “My son loved this course. Made friends from all around the world while learning economics and management in a pragmatic way”

  • “Oxford scholastica was really fun, I get to meet people from around the world and learn from the professionals. The price of this lesson is quite expensive due to the high exchange rate. Overall it was really good.”

  • “My daughter came home saying she had a wonderful experience with the law program at Oxford Scholastica Academy.”

He was very content with the intellectual challenges and is still frequently in contact with fellow scholars from all over the world.”

  • “Best summer experience ever”

  • “James thoroughly enjoyed his time studying at Oxford Scholastica Academy during the summer of 2023. He found the Enterprise Business courses very rewarding and the overall experience was terrific! He loved the freedom that the students had to explore the Oxford area as well as the trips that they all took together to do some sight seeing! The activities outside of the classroom were all terrific. He met students from all over the world and felt that the whole experience was life changing. He will remember it forever!”

  • “I participated in a 2 week online Business and Economics course this past summer. I think that the classes were very interesting even though they were online. We learned about various different subtopics about Business and Economics which I certainly did not know much of before, and found very interesting. I would strongly recommend the course to students who are planning to study Business or Economics at the University level in the coming years as it gives an insight into what the major is all about and is good preparation. A really great experience, with top quality teachers and coordinators, I would strongly recommend it.”

  • “The Oxford Scholastica Academy was by far one of the most memorable and recommendable summer programs I've partaken in. I attended the leadership course and learned so many new things for the field I wish to study. I only wish I had both more time to learn with the remarkable professors and more time to spend with the wonderful people I met, both students and staff.”

  • “It was an amazing experience preparing me for university and beyond. I absolutely loved the city and the amazing people I met. I highly recommend to everyone.”

  • “In addition to learning about subjects which I am very passionate about, I also made new friends. All the teachers/coordinators were extremely nice and caring, always making sure that everyone was included and no one was left behind. In addition to the very interesting classes, Oxford Scholastica also hosted masterclasses, an opportunity for the students to hear from someone highly specialized in their field. It is very clear that all the teachers care about the students learning and are very passionate about what they are teaching. I highly recommend this course!”

  • “Everything has been excellent: the community was welcoming, the courses interesting, and the accommodation superior.”

  • “A very interesting and fun experience. Exceeded all expectations and proved to be worth every moment.”

  • “My daughter truly enjoyed the Oxford Scholastica virtual program in 2020. It was a meaningful experience in multiple ways. She enjoyed meeting kids in other parts of the world and generated her own point of view in topics she was not familiar with before. On my side, I really appreciate how the program allowed her to explore Business, Neurosciences and International Relations principles and further evaluate what she wants to do after high school.”

  • “Oxford Scholastica was one of the most stimulating learning opportunities that my daughter experienced. Not only did she learn and develop intellectually, she also met teenagers from all corners of the world with similar aspirations and broadened her social and team-building skills. We would recommend this summer school programme to any family who is looing at how to encourage their teenager to stretch themselves and embrace new environments which will help them think about the direction they may wish to take once they finish their High School certificate. My 16 year old daughter can still not thank me enough for having sent her to Oxford Scholastica !!”

  • “I cannot put into words how amazing my 15-yr old daughter's experience was. On paper, just by the sheer amount of activities included in the two weeks of Summer Business Camp, it was obvious this was going to be a special time. However, the reality was off the scale! My daughter updated me morning and evening, always full of stories of where she'd been, what she'd done, and her wide circle of new friends (from all corners of the globe). From a "Business" perspective, she also learned much and was encouraged to speak in public, something she hasn't had the opportunity to do as has been home-schooled since before COVID.I've seen her mature 2+ years in the space of 2 weeks!!There is no doubt that Oxford Scholastica knows how to run a well-executed course - keeping the students safe but allowing them to have their teenage-years well needed freedom. I thank you wholeheartedly for taking care of her, for educating her, and having given her the chance to make many new friends. And you're considering booking a daughter/son on such a course - 100% you'll have no regrets. It's worth every penny, and then some.”

  • “Oxford has provided a safe, creative and exciting environment for my children.”

  • “The two weeks I spent at Oxford Scholastica were some of the best of my life. The Creative Writing course was very interesting; it enabled me to grow as a writer, as well as a reader. And our tutor Ben was very helpful, fun and spontaneous, making me excited for every lesson to come. When it comes to the social side of the experience, the two weeks didn't disappoint. Everyone there was incredibly friendly and eager to learn new things. I made friends from every continent, some of them whom I still keep in contact with, half a year later. The counsellors were also very welcoming and always able to help with whatever problem we may have had. I'd recommend this course to anyone wanting to broaden their horizons, learn new skills (including how to punt! surprisingly) and create long lasting friendships.”

  • “It was an amazing experience preparing me for university and beyond. I absolutely loved the city and the amazing people I met. I highly recommend to everyone.”

  • “My 15 year old daughter really enjoyed the maths summer course she did with Oxford Scholastica. The tutor was very knowledgeable and engaging and made the sessions really interesting. There was also a whole host of other sessions that were of great interest about applying for university, personal statements and life beyond university. We will definitely be enrolling in another course.”

  • “My son participated in the Oxford Scholastica program in Summer 2015. Judging by the number of stories he told me and the passion with which he related them, all these coming from a person known to be very hard to impress, I would say he had a blast! If I were to summarize all I heard I think he enjoyed the most the glimpse he had into the life of students at Oxford and the interaction with peers from all over the world with which he still keeps in touch. As a parent, I recommend the program in the strongest possible terms.”

  • “My 16 year old son had the adventure of a lifetime! He learned much about himself, made great friends, visited amazing historic sites and took two intensives that motivated him towards stellar achievements in Law and Speech & Debate. The Oxford Scholastica program is top- notch… the staff is caring and supportive of their students and the teachers inspire greatness in their fields of study. A truly epic summer experience! He has already asked to go again next summer!”

  • “I learned so much during my two weeks at Oxford Scholastica. The classes were both educational and engaging!”

  • “Amazing and inclusive program where learning about both my subject and learning about myself was encouraged.”

  • “My son Lukas has been attending Oxford Scholastica for the past 2 summers and is looking forward to return back next summer. He had fun and met other students from around the world, all the while learning and excelling in the topics he chose. Thanks to Scholastica, he now has a better understanding on the topic and career he wants to pursue. We would like to thank the Scholastica team, advisors and teachers for a wonderful experience.”

  • “By far the best online courses out there! I have had a wonderful experience with Oxford Schoolastica. They have made learning very fun and enjoyable. The socials and the masterclasses were wonderful and really benefited me in many ways. Oxford Schoolastica has made me love learning and exceeding my knowledge.”

  • “My son has passed at Oxford scholastics what he describes in his own words the best days in his life. He joined the Junior Doctors Academy in the summer of 2015. The knowledge and the experience he gained was immense. This gave him a boost and a motive to do all the best effort he can to join a medical school. The sincere care and the intense efforts of the Academy staff is above all expectations.”

  • “A transformative summer school where kids are well taken care from safety to mindset evolution .Well done !”

  • “Oxford Scholastica gave me the opportunity to understand university life, to give me a taste of academic independence, and I met some of the most amazing people, both coordinators/leaders and friends from abroad! I learned so much about myself, the world around me, and I grew remarkably as a person. It is because of my time at OSA that I now want to go to Oxford as a full time student! I loved my two weeks with OSA, and it honest to goodness changed my life!”

  • “Oxford Scolastica was a wonderful experience for me, and I highly recommend it. I got the chance to meet people my age from all over the world with different, and yet similar goals and ideas - motivated, inspiring, unforgettable people.”

  • “OrganizedTrustworthy Challenging Multicultural The above mentioned was what our family was looking for”

  • “Great experience for my two children. In times of pandemic and confinement, it has been like an open portal to share with new friends and keep their minds stimulated. Teachers with a high professional and vocational level who kept them challenged and encouraged them to take their capacities further. Personalized attention and wonderful service through their contact channels. I loved knowing that we will always have the advice of OSA for any questions regarding the academic future of our children. I can not recommend it with greater security and satisfaction”

  • “My Daughter attended the Oxford Scholastica Academy for the psychology program over 2 weeks in the summer and found the program very interesting, engaging and stimulating. The program itself was very well organized, the facilities were outstanding and the staff were both knowledgeable and very friendly creating a very ambient learning environment.”

  • “Excellent….”

  • “Oxford Scholastica made me happy by providing me with the most incredible people I have ever met. The tutor was brilliant and my classmates were amazing. I was able to form a very deep, personal connection with all of them. From my point of view, the price is just a small amount of money you have to pay for the MOST AMAZING EXPERIENCE of your life. Trust me, you will not regret it! It’s worth every penny and so much more.”

  • “I spent two weeks in summer 2015. The staff is very welcoming and warm. It was very ineresting and I learned alot. I can definetely recommend it.”

  • “Gabri spent two wonderful weeks in OSA doing the computer science course. He learnt a lot of new topics regarding coding and he enjoyed working on projects both individually and in a team. The time in OSA was a mixture of accademic growth and time spent visiting new places or socializing with people from all over the world.”

  • “The course was truly excellent and it helped my daughter a lot. She found it very intriguing, interesting and informative..”

  • “My son took part in the Engineering course last summer. Not only did he thoroughly enjoy his Oxford Scholastica experience, he was able to determine the engineering field he wishes to specialise in, Mechanical Engineering. The course offered a perfect balance between a theoretical and practical approach to Engineering. I strongly recommend Oxford Scholastica for its top quality teachings, its professional and caring team, not to mention the social network it opens you up to. Becoming part of the Oxford Scholastica family has helped my 16 year old son mature, gain in confidence, and focus positively on his future. Thank you Oxford Scholastica!”

  • “OSA Summer school is a perfect combination of academic work and leisure activities. It is a unique opportuniry to gain insights into future University life and to meet young people from different regions and cultures of the world. The organization of the summer school was just perfect.”

  • “Ada had a great time. He enjoyed himself so much so that he felt so sad that he has to leave. Moving forward, you might want to extend the period from 2 weeks to three weeks.He is still keeping in touch with the friends he made during his stay with you.Thank you.”

  • “The time that I spent at Oxford Scholastica Academy was truly one of the best two weeks I’ve ever had. I got the opportunity to meet people from all over the world and learned a variety of interesting things related to my course. I felt like I was finally able to let go and have fun this summer because of this program. It not only enabled me to learn, but it also opened me up to people and allowed me to create connections that will hopefully last a long time. I was not expecting to like it as much as I did and I highly recommended this program to anyone that wants to enjoy a summer of learning and meeting new people.”

  • “The two weeks I spent at Scholastica changed my life — as a person, student, and friend. I was able to open myself up to new cultures, new people, new experiences, and new knowledge. The law course challenged my academic character and made me feel completely assured in my decision to pursue Law as my subject for further education, and maybe even my career. I made friends that I’ll be lucky to have for a lifetime at Scholastica — in my peers, and in the staff. The warmth and comfort with which the Scholastica family opened their arms to me is truly incredible. The support, friendships, and knowledge I gained from just two weeks with a small group of people will continue to be with me for a very long time. Thank you, OSA! I strongly recommend Scholastica to anyone who has the opportunity to apply!”

  • “Well organised. The programme provided a mix of academic and social exposure for participants. The international mix of students also allowed participants to be exposed to a diverse range of people & cultures. Safety of the students was good.”

  • “I spent 4 weeks in Oxford and I'm glad I did. I feel like 2 weeks wouldn't have been enough. I did the law and debate courses, I really enjoyed the two of them as well as the trips and the other activities. But meeting people from all around the world was definitely my favourite part of the experience, and I'll do my best to keep in touch with many of them!”

  • “An incredible summer school with a warm and welcoming staff. Loved the two weeks I spent at scholastica, both in terms of academics and social life. The law course was challenging but extremely rewarding, as it assured me that it was the path I wanted to choose at university. The scholastica community also really leaves you with an excellent support network even after the summer school, as I received help with for example my university application and constantly stay in touch with people I met at scholastica. Overall, the summer school was an amazing experience that I would recommend to anyone.”

  • “One of the most memorable experiences of my life.”

  • “Great experience, the class was interesting and engaging and the activities were fun. Highly recommend!”

  • “I've always shared a passion for business, but have never really got the chance to explore it further than school. But then I came across the OSA Scholarship, after been shown a video in my school assembly, I was instantly hooked and wanted to research into it quickly. Having looked at the courses the Academy offers, Enterprise stood out and I read all the information about the course I could and applied contently. When I got selected and started receiving emails in terms of the start of the summer school, I got more and more excited. As nervous as I was on the first day, I was happier throughout the whole journey! The lovely people I met have grown so close to me and I have made so many amazing memories with them! I loved learning about different cultures and lifestyles and how traditions here differ from elsewhere, and the love they shared for Oxford showed me how beautiful this place actually is! Interestingly, I have memories attached to nearly every corner of central town; where we had dinner with our house groups and lunch with my friends, and now I can't walk past without having stopped to look back at those times! The most difficult part has got to be departures day, leaving the people you grow so close to in little time is really sad and there has to be a reunion! My tutor for Enterprise was really nice and he got to know every class member really well impressively quickly! The class sizes were small to receive a greater tutor focus individually, but big enough to have some well debated group discussions! The feedback he gave to me really helped in the development of my skills and he played a big hand in making me a more confident person, especially after the hands-on brand challenge! My favourite was when we had competitions on who could use and apply an intense formula the quickest in class! The staff were an incredible support system and what I loved the most is that the age gap between them and us wasn't too big and this helped them understand us very well and always took care of every single person! I made so many memories with the team itself that they just became our friends by the end of it! I still remember watching the OSA video where someone said that they had the best two weeks of their summer, in response to that, I thought 'you're just saying that, it can't be that good!' But I can now proudly say that I've not only had the best two weeks of my summer, but my whole life! I've never done anything like this; OSA has exceeded my expectations and I am glad to have made valuable memories with it, which I will cherish forever!”

  • “I honestly had the most amazing summer of my life all thanks to OSA. I met amazing people that I still keep in contact with everyday and also learned so much from the course that I took. Oxford Schastica allowed me to understand different cultures and helped me feel more comfortable in a college like environment. The counselors were helpful with my studies and fun loving individuals that always managed to get us to have a great time. I remember waking up every morning excited for the day and dreading having to fall asleepbecuase it meant another day was over. In those two weeks I grew as a student, a friend, and a person and was changed completely by the end of it. It's simply an experience I will never forget and one that I encourage every person to have.”

  • “It was great”

  • “Oxford Scholastica was a great experience for to learn new thing, not just from computing but also about leadership, debating and alot more. I made a lot of new friends, and i hope that these friends will be friends for a long time because in these two weeks be all gained a strong bond with eachother”

  • “Nil had a great experience in terms of both academic studies and social environment including activities. Thank you very much for this opportunity.”

  • “This has been the most memorable experience of my life. The staff was so sweet which included Eliza, Kate, Jessie, Will, Dan and Tessa. They are such amazing people and I honestly couldn’t have chose a better house than Cherwell. I made such good friends from all around the world who I am so close to and who i have grown to love. Leaving this summer school was the saddest thing I’ve ever had to do but I will never let go of this experience. If I could do this again with the same staff and the same people I would without hesitation. OSA is my second home.”

  • “It was a well organised short course which benifited my daughter to broaden her concept of responsibilities of a medical doctor, (including hospital work, pressures and how to deal with patients). Living in hostel with children from other countries and inhouse discussions made my daughter understand views, customs & ideas of other people. She also made very good friends.Visits to Oxford &London were both enjoyable and informative.”

  • “OSA was the best experience I have ever had. I made the best friends, I learnt a lot, and had the best time of my life out there. Highly suggest it.”

  • “Everyone was so sweet and kind and I feel as if I've learned a lot from the classes. The activities were also extremely fun. All members of staff were amazing and caring as well - Eliza, Jessie, Will, Kate, Tessa, Dan. Though, a lot of us were strongly upset that Eliza wouldn't be there on the last two days, and she wouldn't be there for graduation either. But overall, this summer school was brilliant.”

  • “Very professional set up with good information before, during and after the course. It was very clear, motivating and friendly preparation between the student and Oxford Scholastica. We had an incident in the family during his stay in Oxford and the support both we and he got was very good and caring. I would give Oxford Scholastica the best reccomendation.”

  • “The time that I spent at Oxford Scholastica Academy was truly one of the best two weeks I’ve ever had.

I was not expecting to like it as much as I did and I highly recommended this program to anyone that wants to enjoy a summer of learning and meeting new people.”

  • “Oxford Scholastica was a great experience for my son. Thanks to a combination of academics and extra-curricural activities (trips, sport, fun) OSA made an unforgettable summer for him. He made new friends, enjoyed being independent (14 years old), liked his stay in the campus (Lampl building) and last but not least he learned new things in Discover Technology course. I would definitely recommend OSA as very well-organized Summer school.”

  • “Love the summer school. Had the time of my life. But i would have appreciated if we got more halal food.”

  • “it was inclusive and accepted everyone that came and go”

  • “Oxford Scholastica didn't just give me a mesmerizing experience over a short span of two weeks, it helped me evolve as a human being. For my first ever summer school, I enjoyed spreading my wings and accepting all the challenges and opportunities the camp had to offer. From making new friends, to learning how to be independent, I learnt how to make the right choices and decisions. I enrolled in the Young Doctors Academy, and have no regrets. I actually felt like an aspiring junior doctor practicing and learning with the most enthusiastic experts. Overall I really enjoyed my summer and made the best of friends and definitely encourage all adolescents to go and explore and take full advantage of this opportunity to be a part of an absolutely amazing little community and experience their future aspirations in the best two weeks of their lives.”

  • “I really enjoyed my time at OSA! I met the most amazing people from all over the world and really made some unforgettable memories. Our ACs and tutors were also amazing. I really miss Oxford and I think this summer experience has motivated me to work even harder and shown me what I am working towards. Thank you so much for the best summer ever.”

  • “OSA was a great experience that made me sure about my academic path, I made great friends and had so much fun. If I could I would do it all over again”

  • “Amazing place to discover and learn”

  • “I went to OSA in 2014 and attended the maths academy. This experience was so incredible that I don't think I'll ever forget it; I can honestly say it was one of the best summers of my life and a truly life-changing experience. Haikal, my maths tutor, encouraged all of us to try our best and showed us what maths at uni is really like. This was incredibly useful as there's a large difference between maths at school and maths at uni. Combining these lessons with the support of all the staff at OSA, especially the Activity Coordinators who were students themselves, gave me the courage to apply to study maths at uni. The whole setup of the camp gave me a great feel for what studying in Britain would be like, so when I started my mathematics course at the University of Bath, I felt prepared in a way that others weren't.The amazing multicultural environment at OSA was also fantastic, the small group of students meant that we ended up feeling like a family by the end of it and four years later, I'm still in touch with students across the world.Thank you OSA for such an incredible experience! I loved it so much!”

  • “The Young Doctors’s course at Oxford Scholastica Academy was a memorable experience for my daughter. She met people from all over the world and is still in contact with some of them. The course provided her with a clearer vision of what she wants to do in the future. She improved her science and English knowledge. The staff was very helpful and friendly.”

  • “Overall, the entire 2 weeks programme I attended was incredible. I learnt new topics and interesting new ideas in my experience engineering course. Especially with an amazing tutor which I look up upon. In addition, meeting new friends and having connections with people from around the world is like the icing on the cake. Not too mention, the ACs were welcoming and kind-hearted which are definitely one of the coolest people I've met.”

  • “Forming new friendships, enjoying new city with caring staff and facilitatung learning about new topic in extremely fun and engaging environment.”

  • “It’s been several months since our son participated in Oxford Scholastica Academy’s summer school program and he STILL talks about how it was one of the most memorable experiences of his life. He was able to interact with students from 20 different countries and remains in close contact with many of them; surely they will be lifelong friends. The program offered a combination of rigorous, personalized academics; cultural experiences; and LOTS of fun! I can’t speak highly enough of the chaperones and tutors who took such good care of and made a lasting impression on our son.”

  • “Our daughter had a wonderful summer experience with Oxford Scholastica Academy. She really enjoyed interacting with other motivated students from so many different countries, and felt the program really prepared her for upcoming college applications and admission decisions.”

  • “Two of my children have now attended this course. It gave them the confidence to surge ahead in life with a purpose and confidence that is so essential. One of the best decisions I made for my children and their futures is to have sent them to Oxford Scholastica Academy. Thank you”

  • “it was very fun and educational. I learnt a lot and made a lot of new friends. the masterclasses were fun and engaging and the lessons were very interesting.”

  • “I think this goes to everyone, those two weeks in OSA was a really wonderful experience. I got the chance to explore what Law is really all about, through this program. Classes were very much interesting and loved how the tutor made the class very interactive, not to mention their Masterclasses. Each day we learnt different topics on the subject basing all on real-life events which prepped us for the long-waited 'Challenge Day', which was a blast.We got the chance to explore the beauty of Oxford in those two weeks. It was a shame though we didn't get to visit London but this was for our own safety. Instead, we explored Cambridge which was amazing. Patrons handled us with such great care which I truly appreciate. Always insuring that we were safe and sound and feel like we're at home.Who knew that in those short period of time, good friendship could be built. I wouldn't trade that for anything. Sure enough, the program was one of the best things that had happened for me. Looking forward to paying Oxford and OSA another visit. Shout to Ivo and the whole St. Georges house!”

  • “I really enjoyed the program and have made some excellent friends.”

  • “The programs were structured so that the students could gain valuable knowledge and experiences relating to their area of interest while also enhanced their communication and social skills. It's indeed a very good university preparation!”

  • “It was the best two weeks of my entire life! The whole experience was incredible!”

  • “Our daughter's experience with the Oxford Scholastica Academy was extremely positive. When we went to pick her up after two weeks, she wished she could stay another two weeks. The team was well organized and energetic. She enjoyed her classes, especially the introduction to debating. So much so, that she has started a debating club in her current school. The Academy offers great potential for students to learn things outside their usual boundaries.”

  • “I am so glad that I was able to spend my summer at Oxford with Oxford Summer Scholastica. Not only was I able to enhance my understanding of the subject I was studying through the highly supportive learning environment, but I also received plentiful of opportunities and valuable experiences that I will continue to cherish. I also met the most amazing of people whom I know will become lifelong friends of mine. At this point, Oxford has become my second home, and I owe it all to OSA.”

  • “My daughter went to Oxford Scholastica in the summer of 2017 and she enjoyed it so much that when we picked her up, her and all her new friends were crying. Not only did she love the camp and learned so much, but she is begging to go back again.”

  • “From ika, It was a fun socialising and learning experience, and it was also nice getting to know more about Oxford.”

  • “I met incredible people who have become some of my closest friends today. Also, having grown up in different countries has taught me so much about different cultures perspectives globally.”

  • “Oxford Scholastica Academy was an amazing summer experience. The courses were complete, engaging and fun ; I learnt more in those two weeks than I thought possible and our tutor gave us a exciting first approach to psychology.However, the course weren't even the best part (which says everything about how great the academy was). I met the most wonderful people with whom I shared the loudest laughs and deepest conversations. The days were very fulfilling, between the intense courses in the morning and the full on activities in the afternoon, there was never a minute of boredom. The food, of course, was delicious and the staff was extraordinary.The daytrips to Windsor and London were also a great addition.Overall, I'll never forget the summer school, the people I met or the friends I made.”

  • “Best summer of my life.”

  • “It made me happy that I learned many new things and I know the city Oxford and the architecture was amazing and that I made new freinds from around the world and finally is that I visited Windsor and Cambridge”

  • “it was a very nice experience and I definitely recommend it for people who want to learn new ideas and meet new people.”

  • “My son had such an amazing experience with Oxford Scholastica. The knowledgeable tutors helped create further interest in his subject of choice, for which he plans to pursue further studies. Highly recommend Oxford Scholastica to others.”

  • “My son, Alexander, truly enjoyed his experience. He was academically and intellectually challenged while also making friends from around the world. We highly recommend this summer program.”

  • “Oxford scholastica was one of the best experiences of my life. Not only does it broaden your perspective of the world and its inhabitants, the academic part of it proves to be really helpful in professional lives as well. I, now a first year medical student, am able to put the knowledge gathered at oxford scholastica to good use in my university, and this is what sets me apart from from the rest of my fellows university students. Our tutor, Dom, was an amazing teacher and built our concepts really well and in a way that they'll remain with us throughout life. I wish i could do oxford scholastica all over again. Plus they take really good care of you and make you feel like you're at this home away from 'home'. Best of luck to Jamie, sophie and the team!”

  • “This experience was one of the best of my life, I made friends and learned a lot during my time.”

  • “Extremely. Its been three years since OSA happened, and still my favourite memories were made here.”

  • “I know everyone says that but it was honestly the best two weeks of my life. I met so many different people and made so many long lasting friendships. I met my best friends today in Oxford. The classes were really good and the best part was that we were treated as young independent adults. I would definitely recommend it to friends and would do it again myself if I could. Loved every bit of it.”

  • “My daughter participated in Oxford Scholastica course in July 2023, and she had an outstanding experience. She has done a similar summer course in the past years in the USA, but this one stands out due to the level of organization and kindness of the people who supported her.Her agenda was filled not only with academic topics but also with social events promoted by Oxford Scholastica. Also, she needed some additional attention due to flight schedules and the team were very supportive and communication by email was efficient. As a father I felt comfortable to allow my daughter (17 years old) to travel from Costa Rica to UK to be part of the Oxford Scholastica program.”

  • “I never thought I'd make such good friends within a mere two weeks, but I did. Two days in my tightest friend group consisted of 7 people altogether coming from 4 different countries and we spent the time doing everything together. I'd hop to class every day, have fun and learn something refreshing, then my friends will be waiting for me back at the accommodation where we gather and set off again to have yummy bites wherever we want. It's a constant adventure in a safe and warm environment, with super friendly staff who aren't much older than us and so are easy to approach and equally great to talk to. I love them. If you want to know how happy I am with OSA, well, it made me pick Oxford as my uni over Cambridge. :) And before you scoff - "well, that must have been due to other factors too!" - yes, but when Oxbridge is really just so similar, OSA was an overwhelming motivation behind my choice because I was instantly attracted by the homeliness of the town. I was drawn compellingly to Oxford by the fond memories OSA created for me :)You might think it's "just" a Summer camp, but this is no other Summer camp and "just" certainly doesn't do it justice. (I probably just destroyed the credibility of my review with this horrible pun.. Oops.) But seriously, I'm sure you agree uni choice is a big decision in your life - and well, let me put it this way. Let me tell you that OSA - a very special two weeks of Summer it is - shaped one of the biggest decisions of my life.”

  • “As a parent of an English student living abroad it was great to find a course so well organised for my son to attend during the summer of 2015. As was my intention it was an introduction in part to life at university in the UK where my son will be studying in the near future. Staying at Oxford halls and having relative freedom of the city and most importantly creating long-lasting friendships with complete strangers in a short period of time were invaluable lessons. The two weeks were tremendously well scheduled with lots of activities both educational and social. My son returned a more outgoing, confident and mature person and I will be forever grateful to Jamie and his very capable team for this opportunity. Many thanks again for such a wonderful experience.”

  • “Going to OSA was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone I know. I have learned a lot and made longlasting friendships. The staff and teachers are very nice and let's not forget that the food is great! -Milena”

  • “Awesome academic experience. My son grounded and extended his interest in engineering by individual studying, doing practical tasks and discussing with his peers under the supervision of a highly qualified, communicative and supportive teacher. Two weeks of decent work and stimulating interactions that stir motivation for further study.”

  • “Helped me boost my confidence and develop my friendships. I honestly had an absolutely amazing experience at OSA, making strong bonds with people who now I call my bestfriends and they mean the world to me. OSA was a fun filled experience and I would highly recommend everyone to choose this academy for their summer school!!”

  • “Oxford Scholastica was one of the best experiences of my life. Not only was I very well looked after, with all members of staff being nurturing and responsible, but during these 2 weeks I was able to meet absolutely amazing people from all over the world. In addition, the course I took, Enterprise Academy, was informative and entertaining. Class sizes were small enough to get plenty of feedback from our tutor, but large enough to be able to have engaging, interesting discussions on the topic of economics and the business world. The academy had a perfect balance of social activities and academics and I would no doubt recommend it to anyone in the age range for the camp who is looking for, as quoted, the most memorable summer of his/her life.”

  • “Oxford Scholastica Academy is an amazing camp for having a good time, making new friends, and most importantly, learn about a subject you are interested in. It is an amazing camp and I definitely recommend it.”

  • “My time in Oxford was simply amazing. There I experienced what was like being a med student, and the actual routine of an uni student. I met amazing people with whom I still talk in day to day basis. My head of house and the other tutors were kind and helpful at all times, they took time to talk to us and get to know everyone. On the end of the course I wished I stayed there forever because George’s( my house) was now a beautiful family.”

  • “The overall experience is memorable, and life-changing. Besides making friends from all over the world, I have discovered myself in the process, confirmed my interests and nurtured my passion for medicine. The social and cultural aspects were fantastic. Oxford Scholastica has also given me exposure to different things, such as debating, history, philosophy etc. I've learnt some fascinating things in the Young Doctors Academy, however, would've enjoyed it even more if there were longer lesson times.”

  • “It is wonderful!”

  • “Excellence”

  • “Oxford Scholastica Academy was easily the best experience of my life so far. I learned more than I thought possible in a span of just two weeks, made friends from every corner of the world and lived memories with them that will stay with me for a lifetime. The staff was very welcoming and friendly and made me feel at home from day 1.”

  • “Excellent program”

  • “My experience at Oxfiord is honestly very difficult to put into words. When I arrived at St Georges I was very scared and intimidated. I didn’t know anyone and was very far away from my home. That all changed in a matter of minutes. Everyone welcomed me with bright smiles and I then realized that the upcoming weeks will be a time of my life that I will never forget.The Summer School was amazing. Going to classes every morning was an exciting experience as we were all on edge as to what we would be doing in class that day. My group was fantastic and I felt at home every second of the way. The whole experience was unforgettable. Form the classroom discussions to the exploring of Oxford during our free time. The organisation was immense! We were always informed of any changes or new activities well in advance and this was something that greatly comforted me. The trips that were organized were very special and every one gave me many memories that I will not forget.The friendships I made will last me a lifetime. Oxford taught me many life lessons that I will keep with me until I die.”

  • “Prior to attending the Oxford Scholastica Academy, the image I had of this summer camp was far different than what I was expecting; I'll explain it in a few words: I had expected OSA to be a summer camp with an unpleasant amount of workload, no time for fun and studies was our #1 priority, but it was the complete opposite. The first day, Jamie told us that some people had the best summer of their lives at OSA, and hearing that made me giggle, as I completely underestimated the influence OSA had on me later on. As I left the camp, I looked back and thought of how well this camp balanced the activities and its values: I learned a lot (In the Engineering course, that I'm applying right now in my senior year at school, very useful), I made a lot of new friends (that I still speak to almost everyday), the staff at OSA were remarkably amusing and friendly, and the whole management was amazing. Hats off to Jamie Dear for actually, making OSA the best summer camp I've ever attended and probably making it the best summer I've had.”

  • “My daughter had a wonderful experience at Oxford. She came back with a sense of pride in her accomplishments, a bunch of new friends and a broadened perspective on international relations. I am so grateful to everyone involved in this program. I give it my highest recommendation.”

  • “Oxford Scholastica Academy helped me get over my fear of public speaking, along with giving me confidence in my ablility to be in front of a crowd. It also alowed me to learn how to navigate and live by myself, something I have never had experience with before.”

  • “I felt very warmly welcomed by the friendly staff the moment I arrived at the airport, which was a relief considering it was my first time travelling alone, and my first time to the UK. Ice-breaking was a very good idea in my opinion. The accommodation was extremely comfortable - we were looked after very well by the Dame and the Scholastica staff. I personally enjoyed the food, and there was a good balance between self-arranged and group meals, as it allowed us to socialise and bond even with students who took other courses or were in the other house. The classes were interactive, fun but also thought-provoking. My Law course definitely gave me more insight into the subject field, although I wouldn't have minded if it was a bit more work-intensive. That's subject to opinion, of course. Enjoyed the outings. I'm well-aware some people broke curfew rules but to be honest, curfew was an excellent idea. It made sure we were safe and had enough rest, regardless if we were hanging around the accommodation or actually in our rooms sleeping. The room itself - clean, cosy, tidy, thanks to the cleaning-man. Didn't use the laundry service but imagined it to be relatively efficient? Overall, my first summer school and a much cherished experience. Best of all: met friends from all over the world.”

  • “孩子参加此次夏校,感觉很有收获!对英国的教育制度以及未来想要从事的生物医学的认知有了更深入的了解,也对英国的社会和文化更加感兴趣。感谢学院对此次夏校的精心安排!Children participate in this summer school, feel very rewarding! She has a deeper understanding of the British education system and the future biomedicine she want to engage in, and she is more interested in British society and culture.Thank you for your thoughtful arrangement of this summer school!”

  • “My son, Tommy, who was so shy speaking in public, decided to take the Debate and Public Speaking Academy. Over the course of two weeks, in small group sessions and under the attentive care of his instructors, he emerged confident, and eloquent. In fact, he gave a thoughtful and elegant speech at the graduation in front of a large crowd of people.I am grateful to Photis, and all at Oxford Scholastica, for a wonderful summer immersion experience that has changed Tommy forever.”

  • “the experience was once in a lifetime and the friends I made there are definitely ones I'll keep in the years to come. the most fruitful summer holiday I have ever spent!”

  • “I don't know if life changing, yet. But super open minding and interesting experience!”

  • “I LEARNT A LOT FROM THE SCHOOL AND FROM OTHER COURSE MATES FROM OTHER COUNTRIES DURING MY STAY. I WILL LOVE TO BE THERE AGAIN”

  • “My daughter, Rohma Amjad, had a wonderful experience that she says she will always remember. Interacting with teachers and students of various nationalities, learning about the English culture and traditions, and learning more about her subject, Economics, were the key takes from this trip. She is still in touch with her friends in her batch, and still cherishes her memories of Oxford.”
