Testimonials from our course providers

The best lesson I have had so far was at the beginning of the course when we studied Game Theory, and when we did presentations in class about shops or platforms that we had to imagine ourselves.

The best thing about the Medicine course was the interactivity of the lectures. My tutor was really interested in the subject, so I always felt like I could go up to her and ask her questions, whether they were about what we were learning or about other areas of biotechnology.

The course gave me an insight into how to make arguments in support of or against certain positions which is useful in law and the tutor assisted me in how to structure these arguments. I've enjoyed the company of having a roommate and that you make so many new friends.

Do I get a certificate by completing a summer course?

Yes. On completion, you may receive a certificate confirming that you completed the course programme. It will include the course title and dates, along with your name, and will be signed by the summer school leaders.

What is the minimum academic standard for your summer courses?

What's most important is a passion for your chosen subject and an enthusiasm to learn. The application process includes you writing a personal statement to demonstrate your commitment to the subject. A good command of English is recommended and for most summer courses, the summer school of your choice will assess this when you arrive. Tutors have experience supporting students of all abilities.

If you've got any questions or need further information about the application process, feel free to contact our friendly team.

Will these summer courses help me get a place at partner universities or give me credits with my school?

A summer school's teaching is designed to advance your learning. Because university entry requirements and school credits vary between institutions, we recommend you speak with your own school or university about this.

How do I prepare for attending my chosen course?

Before arriving at your chosen summer school, you may receive a welcome pack. This may include a programme outline and a piece of work or reading to be completed before you arrive. If this is difficult to understand, your tutor will help you when you get there.

My area of interest isn't covered by the courses on offer. Can you still help me?

Our summer programmes and courses are designed to help you enrich your knowledge and understanding, and we want to ensure you have tuition from an expert in the relevant department. It may not be possible to expand our curriculum to include your preferred area of interest, but whatever course you attend will help you develop valuable academic skills.

How much of the UK will I see on cultural excursions?

Students, particularly those coming to the UK, will get to experience a range of trips and visits during their summer programme. These can include exploring historic cities such as London, Bath and Canterbury, visiting the stunning Blenheim Palace and the fascinating Harry Potter Studios. The programme we arrange will vary depending on the age group and dates of your course.

How long is a summer school?

It really depends on the summer school you choose to register with and the course.It typically lasts from one week to four weeks. For example, a creative writing course at Cambridge lasts up to 2 weeks.

What is a summer school like?

Think of a two week holiday, away from your parents, in a fascinating city with like-minded people. Your days will be filled with interesting teachings in a field you've chosen and taught by world-class teachers. Then at night, expect to explore the history and culture of the place.

This is a unique opportunity for you to get a feel of the international experience, to study and socialise with other students and make new friends.
