Our 2013 College Open Days are aimed at Year 12 school/college students who are considering applying to Cambridge for entry in October 2014 or deferred entry in October 2015. (Please be aware that Christ's does not accept applications for Veterinary Medicine.)
There will be the opportunity to look around the College and to meet current students, Tutors and Directors of Study. Lunch will be included free of charge.
We usually start at 10.30am and finish around 3.00pm (so it's not really possible to attend more than one College Open Day on the same day although depending on your travel arrangements there should be enough time for you to have a look around Cambridge.
A student who came to one of our recent open days said "I found the college tours particularly enjoyable because it gave us a real insight into college life. The Directors of Study talks were also really useful because they told us what they are looking for and gave us more information about the courses which are unique to Cambridge. "
If you'd like an invitation to one of our Open Days, please complete and return the on-line booking form linked to the relevant date listed above (or see the box to the right on this webpage). On-line booking usually opens about six weeks before each open day.
We're sorry the College doesn't have adequate space to allow parents and friends to attend the first part of the Open Day. However, if they plan to come to Cambridge with you, they are welcome to come to the parents' talk and tour of the College, normally starting at 1.30pm sharp in the afternoon on a College Open Day. We aim to finish parents' programme at 3.00pm as well.
If you find you can't attend one of our open days, as a prospective applicant you may visit the College at any time. Please introduce yourself to the Porters as a prospective applicant and they will allow you to come in and look around. Information about visiting the College is available here.
