Undergraduate Study

 
Students attending the 2023 Summer Residential

The Summer Residential is aimed at students in Year 12 (S5 in Scotland, Year 13 in Northern Ireland) who are considering studying a course within the arts or humanities at university. It will provide successful applicants with the opportunity to explore a number of subjects in more depth, get a taste of life at Cambridge, meet current students and staff, and find out more about the application process and Cambridge as a city. We hope that students who participate will get a real taste of university life, and a better understanding of what they can do now to prepare themselves for this step.
