Oxbridge Online Summer Camps are virtual academic enrichment programmes, offering exceptional opportunities for motivated students around the world to learn university-level topics from expert academics of Oxford and Cambridge Universities at their own comfort home.
Oxbridge Online Summer Camps are designed to emulate the experience of academic seminars in a university environment. The programmes will lead students through an unparalleled educational experience to gain valuable insight into what it’s like to study a subject at university level. Participants will focus on advanced academic content and develop both the expertise and enthusiasm to plan for an academic future with confidence.
Taught by expert Oxbridge university tutors, the programmes allow students to explore university-level subjects on a virtual platform alongside other students from around the world. All students take part in a combination of subject-based tuition, 1:1 tutorials, academic workshops and social activities with other students from around the world. Aside from daily contact with their tutors, participants will also meet current undergraduates at Oxbridge University during activities, learn from visiting expert guest speakers and engage in interactive skills-based workshops.
Like traditional residential summer camps, all students will also enjoy a specifically designed ‘Social Hour’ at the end of each day to socialise and connect with like-minded individuals from around the world through a variety of online activities and games. These sessions are delivered by course Mentors – current undergraduates of Oxbridge University, who share their experiences and lessons to inspire participants to apply to the world’s top universities.
Oxbridge Online Summer Camps are conducted online. With the teaching faculty based in the UK, the virtual programme has two ‘Streams’ (9AM or 3PM start in UK Time) available for students of all time zones. All sessions are recorded, which can be shared if you miss any session. For students who want a personalised 1:1 tuition on university-level subjects can choose our Oxbridge/Ivy League Research Program.
