About Us

At Oxford Summer Courses, young minds take the lead in a journey of discovery and development, fostering friends and building confidence along the way. During our summer programmes, you will break free from the restrictions of exams and mandated syllabuses, instead, empowered by expert tutors, you will explore your own academic interests, delving into a subject you love.

~40 subjects are available for students aged 13-24* to choose from (from Medicine, Law, Business and Entrepreneurship to Creative Writing, Neuroscience, Physics and Sociology). Each course is taught across a 2-week period in Oxford or Cambridge, UK. Can’t decide? You can opt to study more than one course, try out different subjects and both locations with free transport in between (select ‘extend my course’ on your application.)

Our deliberately small-sized classes encourage your own ideas and arguments to come to the fore with immediate, personalised tutor feedback. This mirrors the long-standing Oxford teaching style with its unparalleled reputation for rapid development.

During an Oxford Summer Course you learn in a city known for academic excellence and live in a University college which will elevate your intellectual curiosity to greater heights. Engaging in cultural activities and exploring other prominent UK destinations enriches your experience, fostering independence and critical thinking skills needed for any future career choice.

Our courses celebrate individuality and inclusivity by design. Structured sessions alongside unstructured socialising connect you with a diverse, international community of bright and brilliant young minds (more than 100 nationalities attended in 2023), who challenge your thinking and provide fresh perspectives.

At the end of the summer, you will be prompted to ask yourself: where will your learning take you now?
