Oxbridge Academic Programs once again offered students the opportunity to live an authentic university experience with the iconic cities of Oxford and Cambridge as their classrooms. With the Bodleian Library on the doorstep in Oxford and being able to walk the same paths as Isaac Newton and Samuel Taylor Coleridge in Cambridge, this year’s students, studying a range of subjects including social psychology, science and the future, law and society, criminology and genetics and biotechnology, had the academic and cultural experience of a lifetime. Classes extended their reach into London with students participating in class-specific field trips as well as cultural field trips to places such as Stonehenge and the Imperial War Museum in Duxford. The option of an additional few days in Paris after the Cambridge Tradition program added even more glamour to the experience.

Students or parents of students who are currently in Form I or Form II who would like to participate in one of the Oxbridge Academic Programs two- or four-week offerings in Los Angeles, Boston, New York, Cambridge, Oxford, Paris, Montpellier, Barcelona or Salemanca in 2020 should attend the information session on Thursday 3 October 2019 in the Wantage auditorium from 18p0 to 19p0 where the programs and application process will be explained in further detail.

Students or parents of students who are currently in Form III who would like to participate in one of the Oxbridge Academic Programs one- or two-week offerings in New York or Oxford in 2020 should also attend the information session on Thursday 3 October 2019 in the Wantage auditorium from 18p0 to 19p0.
