In light of the latest advice about the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, all outreach activities and events organised by Cambridge Admissions Office have been cancelled until the end of August 2020.
We are committed to providing prospective applicants with information about the collegiate University, its courses, and the admissions process. We are looking at opportunities we can offer virtually, as well as the possibility of running some events later in the year. We will update the website with further information once this is available and, for specific widening participation programmes, make direct contact with schools and students affected.
For information about particular events, please check the relevant webpage or contact the event organiser for the most up-to-date information.
We apologise for the inconvenience and any disappointment that this may have caused and we hope to be able to welcome you to an event in Cambridge in the future.
Events for teachers and HE advisers
As well as events for prospective students, a number of events for teachers and HE advisers are organised by the Cambridge Admissions Office (CAO) and several of the Colleges. These events provide up-to-date information about the University, including the application procedure and the range of outreach activities on offer.
Cambridge Teachers’ and Advisers’ Conference, 14 July 2020
On Tuesday 14 July 2020, we will be hosting a one day Teachers’ and Advisers’ Conference at the University of Cambridge.
Bookings will open in May 2020 and further details will be confirmed closer to the event. We look forward to seeing you on the day, and if you have any queries, please contact us on caoevents@admin.cam.ac.uk.
College/department events
Most Colleges welcome teachers’ visits during open days or by appointment at other times. In addition, many Colleges have Schoolteacher Fellowships or vacation study-visit programmes for teachers. Some departments also organise events specifically for teachers during the year. Further information can be obtained directly from the individual Colleges or faculties/departments.
