Oxbridge Summer School

Student Life

Life Beyond the Classroom

We believe education doesn’t stop at the seminar room. Our summer programme is designed to immerse students in the rich cultural, historical, and social life of Cambridge — creating memories and friendships that last long after the final project is submitted.

Cultural Experiences

Explore the best of British culture through curated excursions and experiences designed to complement your academic learning.

Punting on the River Cam

A classic Cambridge tradition with scenic views of college architecture and bridges.

Afternoon Tea in Grantchester

Enjoy a quintessential English tea in a picturesque village setting.

Museum & Gallery Visits

Discover centuries of art, science, and innovation across Cambridge’s world-class museums.

Walking Tours & Local Exploration

Get to know the city’s hidden gems, historical landmarks, and student favourites.

Social Activities

Every evening offers something new — whether it’s time to unwind, get inspired, or simply have fun.

We design activities with all energy levels and personalities in mind — whether you’re extroverted or introspective, there’s something for you.

The Student Conference & Graduation

The final evening of the programme is a celebration of everything you’ve achieved.
At our Student Showcase Conference, you’ll present your final project to peers, tutors, and special guests in a professional yet supportive setting.

This is followed by a formal graduation ceremony and dinner — the perfect close to an unforgettable experience.
