Coronavirus (COVID-19): Advice for prospective students
We'd like to reassure applicants that we're working hard to ensure a smooth and safe admissions process. Please read our latest advice for prospective students.
Courses at Cambridge encompass a huge number of subjects and study options, allowing you to specialise in your interests. Find out about the undergraduate courses available.
If you're applying from outside the UK, visit the International students pages for information about the application process, entrance requirements and student finance arrangements.
If you're aged 21 or over by 1 October in the year you hope to come to Cambridge, and haven't already completed an HE course, then you'll be applying as a mature student.
If you want to apply to Cambridge, the process starts earlier than at other universities to allow time for all the application information to be gathered and considered.
Whichever university you apply to, you need to consider the cost of your tuition and your living costs. There's lots of support available to help you finance your studies.
If you are supporting a young person who is thinking about their university options, it is likely that you have your own questions and concerns about them entering higher education.
