Some students apply both for an undergraduate place at Christ's and for an organ scholarship. You can check the vacancies for organ scholars at Christ's here.

Current notes for organ applicants (Christ's first choice)
  • The application process for organ scholarship applicants applying in Sept/Oct 2024 is different from previous years. Please ensure that you have read the organ scholarship information on the university website carefully.
  • Before applying, please ensure that you read the admissions pages thoroughly in combination with the details for organ applicants below. In particular it's essential to read the relevant subject page and to check the subject requirements and whether there is an admissions test for your course (if yes, you need to know whether it requires registration and by what deadline).
