Our Support for International Students

Oxford and Cambridge have a long established global reputation for academic excellence and attract the best and the brightest students from around the world.  We offer specially tailored support for international students to help you succeed at every stage of your application and allow you to excel in the British university admissions process.

We are inviting applications for our Oxbridge Platinum Programme. This invitation-only programme provides expert support for applicants to Oxford and Cambridge who live outside the European Union.  Click here to see our brochure.

The first step to joining our programme is to arrange a Private Consultation over Skype.  The Private Consultation is an invaluable first step for students (and parents) considering an application to Oxford, Cambridge and other leading UK universities. It is a chance to understand what is required, both practically and academically, and an opportunity for our consultants to assess whether a student has the potential to make an application with our support. 
Please email info@oxbridgeapplications.com to book your Private Consultation on Saturday 7th or Sunday 8th July.

Our Private Consultations provide a crucial first step on the path to a potentially successful application to Oxford or Cambridge, as well as establishing a strong starting point for your research into other prestigious UK universities. 

A Private Consultation helps you understand your key strengths and weaknesses, gives you vital information about the applications process to Oxford and Cambridge and identifies the areas you need to focus on over the coming months to ensure you make the strongest application possible.

Questions we can focus on in your Private Consultation

Every student has their own questions when approaching the admissions process and their Private Consultation. We can help with questions relating to your application, subject and status as an international student, such as:

  • What do I need to be aware of as an international applicant?
  • Which exam system should I choose – A levels, IB or another?
  • What should I focus on alongside my current studies?
  • What preparation can I do to excel?
  • What are the admissions tutors really looking for?

A Private Consultation can take place over the phone, via Skype or at a convenient time at our offices in central London.

Our residential Interview & Admissions Test Preparation Weekend

Set in the heart of the Berkshire countryside, our annual residential weekend welcomes international students applying to Oxford and Cambridge every year. The weekend gives you the opportunity to explore your subject with Oxbridge-graduate tutors and develop the skills and confidence required to excel in your admissions test and Oxbridge interview.

This year's Interview & Admissions Test Preparation Weekend will take place at Wokefield Park Hotel, from Friday 2nd to Sunday 4th November, the final weekend of the UK Autumn Half Term.

Over the course of the weekend, you will be taught in small and intimate subject-focused tutorials with Oxbridge graduates, designed to emulate the world-class teaching style at Oxford and Cambridge and to prepare you for your interview.

You will also take part in intensive strategy and revision workshops in preparation for any admissions test you are required to sit as part of your application.  These are designed and led by our test consultants and aim to give you the skills and test knowledge you need to excel in the exam.

On the final day of the weekend, you will have five subject-specific mock interviews, including a panel interview and an interview with a former Oxbridge admissions tutor, as well as one general interview, each with full written and oral feedback so you can continue to prepare for your interview beyond the weekend.

For more information and to book, please get in touch on +44(0) 207 499 2394 or email info@oxbridgeapplications.com. Our Skype details are oxbridge.applications.
