Cambridge for Beginners

Are you thinking about an application for an undergraduate course at Cambridge University, but not confident that you know what's involved?

This is an introductory session for students from all backgrounds - if we ask how much you already know about Cambridge on a scale of 1-10 and your answer would be 4 or less, this one is for you! It is designed for those who have not already attended a Cambridge / Oxbridge talk, and we will cover the basics and give you information about next steps for applying.
