Read about last year's programme
"I feel like the high-expectation I had in my head has changed for the better. I had worries that I wouldn’t fit in because of my background and past educational circumstances, but the people I met on the residential had similar backstories to me and that put me at ease."
"What a unique and well organised experience. You feel like a real Cambridge student. You ask questions, visit the three mature Colleges and meet other potential mature students. You have fun as well throughout all the activities they’ve carefully organised. Now, I feel more than ready to start my application!"
