E20: Unlocking Oxbridge: insider tips for Cambridge and Oxford applications

In this action packed episode (ahead of the University of Cambridge and University of Oxford deadline), we welcome and speak to three new students on the UniTasterDays Uni Guide Podcast student panel - Ishan, Nicola and Victoria. They have all recently graduated from either the University of Cambridge and the University of Oxford - and are here to share their lived experiences on several important topics, including:


  • Why they applied?
  • How to apply to Cambridge and Oxford?
  • What the interviews and tests are like and how to prepare for them?
  • The on-site student experience
  • How the collegiate system works?
  • What advice and guidance they can offer to younger listeners?


If you're considering Oxbridge or supporting a student who might be, this is the podcast episode for you!
