Previous Sessions:

24/10/2023 | Session 1: Supercurricular: Exploring Your Subject and Preparing for Competitive Applications. Temporary recording access until end of November - please check your emails! 

Don't forget you can reach out to us with your questions any time! You have our emails and can reach out to any of us whenever. 

On top of this, you can also make a request for a short call/chat too - we know sometimes this is easier just to talk through a few things for 15-20 minutes instead (or less!). If this is something you think could be helpful whether it's some questions about applications, courses or universities more generally, complete this request form - this will ping us to let us know you've made a request and one of us will be in touch to find a suitable time/date. 

There are a lot of free online opportunities to find out more about various subjects - we'd encourage you to make use of these and wherever possible, attend live, because you typically benefit more from being able to participate and ask questions. Don't fall into the trap of thinking you'll get to watching the recording, more often than not you won't(!). 

Remember the below are highlights, not everything so please check the upcoming events page for everything else. You can still make use of stuff other colleges run even if 

Whilst we won't be running specific admissions information (as this was something covered in the summer school, plus a number of you are likely to get a bit bored of the repetition), there are plenty of opportunities to get this information. Please see the following:

It is not necessary for most subjects to find work experience but we appreciate that many of you will still be keen to get some and that it can help you to better understand different career options, particularly relating to the sciences. We hope the below will be useful to have a look through what sorts of things are out there. Please note eligibility criteria can apply and you'll need to check that first before making applications.

Remember: you don't have to include these in university applications, or have to do something relevant to your course for it to be beneficial for you. This is as much about you exploring post-university options and careers, and can be a valuable exercise/experience regardless to better your understanding of what is out there.

*NB: not endorsing any of these specifically, but thought they look like they might be useful (and, free).

Looking to get your claws into something a little more challenging, or have a go at something different? Why not check out these competitions and prizes. No expectation, and it doesn't matter if you are successful in winning anything - it's all about having a go, learning new skills and trying your hand at something new. 

Lots of competitions don't open quite this early. We'll update as things come up.

NB if it says Year 12 that is in England/Wales - Year 13 in Northern Ireland and S5 in Scotland are the equivalent year groups and eligible to participate. I do try to remind people to list all year group equivalents... 

No questions yet!
