Opening the door to educational excellence

Our outreach work is a proactive programme of engagement with communities who have traditionally been underrepresented in higher education. By working with our link schools we strive to demystify the application process and provide resources that empower students from diverse backgrounds to envisage themselves thriving at Cambridge and other top universities.

Your donation is a bridge connecting untapped potential with the opportunities afforded by a Cambridge education, fostering a dynamic and inclusive student body that enriches the academic environment. Ours is a vibrant community where students learn not only from their studies but also from the unique perspectives and experiences of their peers.

You enable us to reach even more potential scholars, and empower pupils of all ages through school visits, residentials, sample lectures and mock supervisions. Importantly our outreach work includes debunking myths about this ‘posh’ and ‘strict’ university, allowing potential applicants to build their own realistic picture of Cambridge life, and consider whether they can see themselves within it.
