Please note, this is a draft programme and sessions are subject to change.
Find out more about our Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences subjects.
We will be offering a variety of course presentations, sample lectures, Q&As and tours. If talks get full, we may ask parents and supporters to remain outside so we can prioritise students.
Always check the course webpages for the most up-to-date information before making an application to Cambridge or accepting an offer.
