Undergraduate Study

 

Corpus is excited to announce that nominations for the latest iteration of the Pelican Programme are now open! The Pelican Programme is Corpus' flagship access scheme and is designed to not only introduce students to new and exciting super-curricular resources and themes, but also to stretch, challenge, and sharpen their oracy and analytical skills. This sustained and intensive programme runs for six-months. At the end of the programme, those students who have completed it are invited for a short residential event here at Corpus to celebrate their achievement, where they get to meet each other in-person and can meet current undergraduates studying their subjects at Cambridge. Last year we had 180 students from across the UK start the programme, with nearly 150 going on to complete it and at least 76 of those intending to make an application to Cambridge or Oxford.

This year we are running streams in the following subjects: Architecture, Classics, English, History, Law, Modern Languages (French & Spanish), Philosophy, Ethics, and Religion, Physical Sciences (Physics, Chemistry, Engineering) and Psychological and Behavioural Sciences – new for 2025.
