Oxbridge Application Guide

Initial Consultation

 

We will discuss your academic ambitions and decide if you are eligible for the Oxbridge Service. This preliminary consultation is free of charge.


Application Submission

The Oxbridge application system involves submitting the best of your written work to date and we will review your essays and assist in selecting the work that ensures admissions officers are impressed. We will also professionally complete your application forms.


Personal Statement

Your Personal Statement is crucial in determining whether your interview will be secured. Academic grades are essential, but high marks alone will not guarantee an interview.


Interview Practice

Oxbridge interviews are famously difficult. Every year candidates are caught off guard by the unusual questions. SI-UK can help you prepare for these with mock interviews to familiarise you with the setting and the type of questions typically asked. After the interview practice, we will give you 30 minutes of oral feedback.
