Applications for this year’s Apply: Cambridge programme are now open!
Apply: Cambridge is a specialist and free programme designed to support high attaining students from underrepresented backgrounds and areas to make successful applications to the University of Cambridge. It’s for students in Year 12 (or equivalent) who intend to make an application to Cambridge in October 2023 for entry in October 2024.
The programme will be delivered by Cambridge staff and Admissions Tutors who will be sharing their expertise on the application process. There are two strands of the Apply: Cambridge programme: with or without mentoring.
